We already have vulnerability management tools. Why should we add Nipper solutions?

Vulnerability management is well-suited to devices with relatively static configurations like servers and endpoints. But network devices are highly configurable, so benefit from Nipper solutions’ in-depth analysis to spot misconfigurations and align these to the latest tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) used by attackers targeting energy and utilities companies.

How do Nipper solutions help with Zero Trust?

Nipper OmniSight monitors Zero Trust segmentation and LPA controls for critical segments such as grid-connected environments, confirming whether devices are correctly enforcing your policies. By combining this with pre-emptive exposure assessment, Nipper OmniSight can provide a real-time, adversary-aware view of the effectiveness of cybersecurity measures for critical infrastructure.

Why is effective segmentation so important for reducing risk?

Segmentation is fundamental to energy sector security because it breaks a complex environment into clearly defined zones with explicit, least privilege connectivity between them. So even if the network is breached, the breach can be contained and the attack surface reduced.

How do Nipper solutions protect legacy systems?

Our solutions don’t protect legacy systems directly; they focus on the networks that are exposing these mission-critical platforms to outside threats. By pinpointing vulnerabilities in these networks, Nipper solutions help eliminate attack paths.

Can Nipper solutions help us map our network?

Yes, both Nipper OmniSight (Integrated) and Nipper OmniSight (Continuous) can create visual representations of your networks, including remote energy operations, based on the device configurations stored in a CMDB. Nipper OmniSight (Continuous) can also populate a CMDB if you don’t already have one.

We don’t have a CMDB. Can we use Nipper OmniSight?

Yes. You can use Nipper OmniSight (Standalone), which uses the configurations you upload to provide point-in-time assessments on an ad-hoc or scheduled basis.

Solutions | Industry | Energy and Utilities

The discovery of Volt Typhoon on the US National Grid proved that the prospect of attackers gaining control of energy and utilities networks is now a genuine threat. Add in the rise of ransomware, and it’s clear that traditional cybersecurity measures for critical infrastructure are no longer enough.

Energy and utilities businesses need new ways to protect their operations, going beyond network hardening and segmentation to monitor their networks continuously for any sign of suspicious activity.

Protection for the most secure environments

Because Nipper solutions operate without network connectivity – assessing configuration files – they can be used to spot risks in air-gapped and offline environments.

Zero Trust segmentation assurance

Nipper OmniSight provides Zero Trust segmentation and least privilege access monitoring for business-critical segments – vital for NERC CIP compliance.

Helps stakeholders clearly understand risk exposure

“One of the key strengths is its ability to map configuration findings against compliance frameworks and security best practices. The reporting is structured, audit-friendly, and helps stakeholders clearly understand risk exposure. The risk-based prioritization is particularly valuable, as it allows us to focus remediation efforts on high-impact issues.”
