Penetration Testing for Energy and Critical Infrastructure
From SCADA and ICS to Smart Grid and OT networks, Raxis tests energy infrastructure the way real adversaries probe it — without disrupting the operations that can’t afford to stop.
Penetration Testing for Energy Providers
Why Penetration Testing Matters for Energy Infrastructure
Reduce Downtime and Protect Operations
By identifying risks early, Raxis testing prevents costly outages and ensures continuous power delivery across your grid or plant.
Simulate Real Attacks Before They Happen
Raxis penetration testing reveals how attackers could disrupt operations or steal data. Our hybrid approach blends manual exploitation, AI-driven analysis, and real-world attack techniques to find vulnerabilities others miss.
Validate Security, Availability, and Compliance Controls
Testing aligns with NERC CIP, ISO 27001, and IEC 62443 standards, helping you prove the effectiveness of security and resilience controls to auditors and stakeholders.
Energy and Critical Infrastructure Systems We Secure
SCADA and Industrial Control Systems (ICS)
SCADA and ICS environments are high-value targets with long patch cycles, legacy protocols, and direct connections to physical operations. Raxis identifies misconfigurations, unpatched firmware, insecure remote access, and network-level vulnerabilities that could enable an attacker to disrupt or manipulate industrial processes.
OT Networks and IT/OT Boundaries
The convergence of IT and OT creates attack paths that neither team owns completely. Raxis assesses network segmentation, firewall rules, DMZ configurations, and remote access controls at the IT/OT boundary — the crossing point attackers exploit to move from corporate systems into operational environments.
Smart Grid and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)
Modern grid infrastructure introduces millions of distributed endpoints, communication channels, and cloud interfaces — each an potential entry point. Raxis tests AMI systems, smart meters, grid sensors, and the backend platforms that aggregate and act on their data.
IoT and Edge Devices
Field devices, remote terminal units, and edge computing infrastructure are frequently overlooked in security programs. Raxis tests IoT and edge devices for insecure firmware, weak authentication, unencrypted communications, and vulnerabilities that could give an attacker persistent access to your operational environment.
Remote Access and Vendor Connections
Third-party vendor access is one of the most exploited entry points in energy sector breaches. Raxis evaluates VPN configurations, jump servers, remote desktop infrastructure, and vendor access controls for weaknesses that could allow unauthorized access to critical systems.
Energy Management Systems (EMS) and DERMS
Energy management platforms and distributed energy resource management systems present complex, high-value attack surfaces. Raxis tests EMS and DERMS applications for authentication flaws, API vulnerabilities, and access control weaknesses that could allow an attacker to manipulate grid operations or energy dispatch.
What Makes Raxis the Right Choice for Energy Sector Penetration Testing
AI-Augmented Testing for Faster, Deeper Risk Detection
Raxis deploys AI-powered tools to accelerate reconnaissance and surface vulnerabilities across large, complex energy environments — then certified penetration testers take over to chain exploits, validate findings, and demonstrate real-world impact. You get broader coverage without sacrificing depth.
Specialized in SCADA, ICS, OT, and Smart Grid Environments
Energy infrastructure isn’t a standard IT environment and it shouldn’t be tested like one. Raxis engineers understand the operational realities of SCADA, ICS, OT, and Smart Grid systems — including the protocols, architectures, and failure modes unique to critical infrastructure.
Testing Aligned with NERC CIP, ISO 27001, and IEC 62443
Every Raxis energy sector engagement is structured to satisfy the penetration testing requirements of NERC CIP, ISO 27001, and ISA/IEC 62443. Reports are audit-ready out of the box, with findings mapped to the specific controls your auditors and regulators need to see.
Zero-Disruption Methodology
Operational continuity isn’t negotiable. Raxis uses a non-disruptive testing methodology designed specifically for live energy environments — identifying vulnerabilities without triggering shutdowns, tripping safety systems, or impacting grid operations.
Clear Reporting and Remediation Verification
Raxis delivers prioritized findings through the Raxis One portal with specific remediation guidance your engineering team can act on immediately. After fixes are implemented, we retest to verify vulnerabilities are properly closed — not just patched on paper.
Continuous Protection Through Raxis Attack PTaaS
Annual penetration tests leave your infrastructure exposed between assessments. Raxis Attack delivers continuous penetration testing as a service, with on-demand testing, real-time vulnerability tracking, and year-round coverage that keeps pace with your evolving attack surface.
