A cyberattack on infrastructure impacts an entire nation.
State-sponsored actors target energy, water and transport. The line between digital and physical is blurring. DEFION protects what keeps society running.
What critical infrastructure operators face
The convergence of physical and digital
SCADA systems, flood barriers, power plants and water treatment facilities are increasingly digitally controlled. A cyberattack has direct physical consequences for millions of people.
Geopolitical threats are increasing
State-sponsored actors such as APT28 and Iranian groups actively target European infrastructure. The threat level is structurally elevated and requires continuous vigilance.
NIS2 as an essential entity
Critical infrastructure falls under NIS2 as an essential entity with the heaviest obligations. Board members are personally liable. The regulator has sanctioning powers.
The threats you are facing
State-sponsored cyberattacks
APT groups with virtually unlimited resources target OT systems in energy, water and transport. Their goal: disruption, espionage or preparing sabotage in case of conflict.
Attacks on OT and SCADA
Targeted attacks on industrial control systems that drive physical processes. From Stuxnet to recent attacks on water treatment plants: the threat is concrete and proven.
Supply chain compromise
Hardware and software suppliers for infrastructure are targets themselves. One compromised update can hit dozens of organisations simultaneously, as SolarWinds demonstrated.

Relevant regulations
NIS2 (essential entities)
Critical infrastructure falls under the heaviest NIS2 obligations. Risk management measures, incident reporting within 24 hours, supply chain security and board-level liability.
National transposition laws
Each EU member state transposes NIS2 into national law with additional requirements for vital providers and essential services specific to that country.
IEC 62443
The standard for industrial cybersecurity, widely applied in energy, water and transport. Provides a framework for securing IACS systems.
