Secured Offline Data Storage for Energy & UtilitiesKeep the lights on. Keep the data offline.
From pipelines halted by ransomware to control-room documents exposed through shared drives, energy sector data is under sustained pressure. When operational files go down, service stops — and the public feels it.
Firevault was built on a simple philosophy: offline is safer than online. After launching the world’s first secured offline digital vault for individuals, we created an industry-ready solution — Firevault Secured Offline Data Storage (FV-Storage).
FV-Storage can be tailored for grid operators, generators, oil & gas, and water utilities — and is fully scalable from 20TB upwards.
The Threat LandscapeEnergy’s Digital Exposure
Professional service firms are prime targets — not because of what they do, but because of what they hold. Client trust, privileged insight, financial data — every attacker wants it. Firevault keeps it out of reach.

OT/SCADA Playbooks & Configs Leaked
Procedure docs, network maps, and set-points harvested from shared drives and engineering laptops.

Ransomware on Critical Operations
Scheduling, outage planning, and pipeline logistics frozen; restoration windows measured in days, not hours.

Third-Party & Vendor Pathways
Remote access tools and multi-tenant providers become entry points to crown-jewel systems.

Regulatory & Reliability Risk
Failure to protect bulk electric system data invites penalties and erodes public trust.

Operational Files Can Be Physically Disconnected, Offline
SCADA procedures, one-line diagrams, relay settings, and runbooks can be held offline only — unreachable during live incidents.

Ransomware Has Nothing to Lock
Restoration images, historian exports, and compliance evidence remain safe in offline storage — clean, signed, and ready to redeploy.

Vendor Risk Removed by Design
No standing credentials, no vendor dashboards, no backdoors. Access is identity-locked and time-boxed.

Provable Compliance Support
Time-stamped, audited access trails help evidence separation of BES Cyber System information and support NERC CIP controls.
Where Firevault WinsEnergy’s Offline Answer
Encryption isn’t enough. Disconnection is.
Firevault provides a new layer of security by removing your most critical data from every network.

Who It’s ForEnergy keeps the world running. Firevault keeps its data safe.
Grid and system Operators (TSOs/ISOs/DSOs): Protect switching plans, relay settings, and restoration packs offline.
Generation & Plant Operations — isolate maintenance procedures, OEM docs, and turbine/boiler configs.
Pipelines & Midstream — secure scheduling, custody transfer records, and route plans against extortion.
Water & Wastewater Utilities — keep treatment recipes, SCADA exports, and incident runbooks disconnected.
CIO/CISO, OT Security & Compliance — hold evidence packs, audit trails, and tabletop outputs offline for NERC CIP / NIS2 alignment.
