DNV’s global report explores the changing attitudes and approaches to cybersecurity in the energy sector. It draws on a timely survey of 600 energy professionals, complemented by in-depth interviews with industry experts. Discover how cyber threats are evolving, challenges and priorities, and the steps the energy industry can take to tackle emerging cyber risks.
DNV Cyber safeguards IT and OT environments serving oil & gas, power, and renewables sectors and their supply chains. In industrial environments, cyber threats are safety risks: life, property, and the environment are at stake. For decades we have helped to ensure a safer energy industry. We continue to do so as we support our customers to manage cyber risk.

increasing cyber resilience with DNV Cyber
Energy infrastructure is becoming more digitally connected to make society safer, increase efficiency, and enable technologies in the energy transition. While interconnectivity of assets and infrastructure and the deployment of new technologies present opportunities, they also create risks – with potential huge safety, reliability, environmental and financial impacts.
The modern hacker can do more than just steal data. They could take control of energy production and distribution facilities such as wind farms, oil and gas platforms, solar grids, or distribution pipelines and electric grids.
As the pace of the energy transition accelerates, we will see massive deployment of digitally connected operational technology. Cybersecurity must be embedded into the “systems thinking” of the energy industry and other critical infrastructure industries, as we govern, prepare & prevent, and detect & respond to cyber risks.
Cybersecurity is critical for the energy industry, for the industry’s digital transformation and for the acceleration of the energy transition. Safety and security are enablers of the clean energy technologies that need to be deployed and operated at scale in the coming decades.

DNV Cyber safeguards IT and OT environments serving oil & gas, power, and renewables sectors and their supply chains. In industrial environments, cyber threats are safety risks: life, property, and the environment are at stake. For decades we have helped to ensure a safer energy industry. We continue to do so, managing cyber-physical risks.
We support more than 100 energy companies to strengthen the resilience of complex infrastructure projects, with our expertise in both onshore and offshore environments, and our in-depth understanding of industry-specific situations.
We can help you comply and stay ahead of tightening regulation affecting critical infrastructure industries and sectors of the energy industry specifically. We support you based on cybersecurity standards and best practices.
DNV has published two recommended practices related to energy cybersecurity: DNV-RP-0575 Cybersecurity for power grid protection devices; DNV-RP-G108 Cybersecurity in the oil and gas industry based on IEC 62443.
