Power security starts with secure people
Ensuring the integrity and operational continuity of the energy sector (encompassing oil, gas, nuclear, and renewable energy industries), is critical to the functioning of modern society.
Keeping the lights on
Scaut ensures the personnel supporting Europe’s energy sector are trusted, compliant and secure.The platform can verify the background of workers in operational technology (OT), SCADA systems, renewables, and nuclear infrastructure. With instant access to cross-border checks, licensing validation, and recurring checks, energy providers can reduce risks of sabotage, insider error, and regulatory breach. Automated re-screening and clearance tracking also support ISO 27019 and IEC 62443 compliance, while integrated workflows with HR and site access systems reduce admin load and increase reliability.
On your checklist
Screen SCADA, OT and plant personnel across national registers
Validate qualifications and licensing for sensitive work
Monitor clearance status and behavioral red flags
Audit staff with physical access to substations/control rooms
Track re-screening cycles for regulated positions
Why it matters
In EU wide exercises like Cyber Europe, conducted by ENISA in 2024, simulations showed how unvetted or insufficiently monitored staff in energy operations can allow lateral phishing or infiltration to disrupt operational technology systemsendangering power grids across borders. Actual energy operators were found lacking unified SOC coverage, with 32% lacking any single monitoring centre combining OT and IT—underscoring risk where personnel trust and continuous monitoring fall short
