Secure Automation of Electrical Infrastructure in Spain

Executive Summary

A common problem faced by many large organizations, regardless of whether they are in the financial, IT, energy, retail or telecommunications sectors, is the rollout and provisioning of new network devices. A recent pilot project illustrates this challenge very well: with the imminent shutdown of the 3G network, a company in the energy sector was faced with the challenge of replacing thousands of 3G routers with 4/5G routers at geographically dispersed locations as quickly as possible. Traditional manual replacement and configuration processes are not only slow, but also pose a cyber-security risk as they rely on external contractors who have direct access to key devices. An automated and secure solution was needed! Together with our partner NEVERHACK, we are offering a remote provisioning (Zero Touch Provisioning) and configuration management solution with StableNet^® designed specifically for critical operational technology (OT) environments such as power conversion centers. From holistic solutions for 5G upgrades in complex network infrastructures to automated approaches to integrate and manage IoT infrastructures like new smart meters, we offer a robust platform for real-world use cases in countless industries. The joint solution from NEVERHACK and Infosim^® provides a secure, efficient and automated solution for organizations to remotely manage and provison thousands of devices.
