Oil and Gas Challenges
Oil and Gas OT networks are unlike other OT networks, and they present a difficult challenge for traditional IT security solutions. The unique challenges introduced by remote geographies, extremely small sites with few devices, large aggregation sites with thousands of devices, and uncertain and insecure WAN/Teleco connections make IT or proxy-based cybersecurity solutions a poor fit.
When a new site is deployed, the first task is to discover all the assets connected to the network to ensure that only authorized systems are connected to the network. After the assets are discovered, they need to be securely connected and protected from external attack and even malicious insiders with zero trust technology. And all this needs to happen with no downtime and the network must stay operational at all costs.
Designed to find and secure the world of devices, the Phosphorus platform provides delivering high-fidelity discovery and risk assessment, proactive hardening and remediation, and continuous monitoring and management.

Many of the challenges faced by various upstream and midstream asset owners are due, in part, to owning thousands of remote sites. Service availability issues, network access challenges, and limited visibility per site make it difficult for asset owners to comply with TSA Pipeline Regulations.
Phosphorus delivers accurate discovery of existing OT, ICS, and IIoT assets that is an essential first step in securing any oil & gas organization. The discovery process needs to be custom designed for an xIoT environment. Phosphorus’s Intelligent Active Discovery delivers the industry’s most accurate, fast, and easy-to-deploy discovery and assessment solution.
BlastWave ingests the assets discovered by the Phosphorussolution and builds a secure overlay on the O&G network that cloaksit from discovery by external threats. It also enables employees,administrators, and contractors phishing-resistant, passwordlessleast privilege access to a segmented network.
By combining the two solutions, O&G companies can quickly build,expand, and operate fields and pipelines with secure networks thatare highly resistant to cyberthreats. These networks can easilycomply with the TSA Pipeline Regulations, with Phosphorus a keycomponent of the Continuous Monitoring and Threat detection, andBlastWave mitigating risk and protecting the network.
Phosphorus is here to eliminate the xIoT security gap with the only remediation platform thatfinds every Thing, fixes every Thing and brings every Thing into compliance. Integrated into yourexisting security orchestration, Phosphorus means you can bring the same level of security andconvenience to the xIoT half of your enterprise without adding manpower.
