India's rapid renewable energy expansion creates critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities — solar plants, wind farms, and energy storage systems rely on SCADA and industrial control systems that are increasingly internet-connected and targeted by nation-state actors. Crewtec helps energy companies secure OT/SCADA environments, achieve ISO 27001 certification, and meet CERC and MNRE cybersecurity guidelines.

Industry-specific threats and compliance gaps that our consultants see repeatedly.
Solar plant inverters, monitoring systems, and grid management platforms are vulnerable to remote attacks that can disrupt power generation or damage equipment.
India's energy grid has been targeted by sophisticated nation-state actors. Critical infrastructure providers face Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) that standard IT security tools miss.
Solar plants use remote access systems for monitoring and maintenance — these must be secured with MFA, privileged access management, and session monitoring.
The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission and MNRE have issued cybersecurity directives for grid-connected renewable energy assets. Non-compliance risks license conditions.
Services we typically deploy for Solar & Renewable Energy organisations, based on regulatory requirements and risk profile.
