Penetration testing for energy

Energy operators run both classic IT networks and OT/SCADA environments -- two different attack surfaces that need an adapted testing scope, not a generic web-application pentest.

How we approach testing here

Testing in this sector is done with extra care: production SCADA/OT environments are never actively tested (risk of service interruption), but third-party access, IT/OT network segmentation, and monitoring/control systems remain real areas that can be tested safely, with a scope explicitly agreed in writing.

What we test in energy

Segmentation between the IT environment and the OT/SCADA environment
Third-party access (contractors, integrators) to operational systems
Monitoring and control systems, administration portals
Web applications and APIs used by operational teams

The full methodology, including the report and testing limitations, is the same across all sectors -- see the general penetration testing page.
