The Situation

Growing Risk in a Rapidly Expanding Operation

In 2023, global energy demand hit 620 exajoules. To keep pace, Farsen Energy ramped up operations and modernized its systems. But expansion came with new risks. Cyberattacks on operational technology (OT) systems were becoming more common, and recent mergers added layers of complexity that made it harder to see the full security picture. As the company grew, its manual assessments and inconsistent protocols couldn't keep up.

The Challenge

Manual Assessments and Fragmented Risk Visibility

Farsen Energy faced challenges shared across the energy production sector:

• Disjointed site assessments
  Each facility handled security evaluations manually, using spreadsheets and fragmented documentation. Without centralized oversight, assessment quality varied, and leadership lacked a clear view of overall risk exposure.
  
  
• Operational slowdowns
  Security assessments delayed new project bids. With no efficient way to prove security readiness, teams struggled to keep pace with demand or respond quickly to business opportunities.
  
  
• Post-M&A complexity
  After multiple acquisitions, the organization inherited a patchwork of security protocols and unknown vulnerabilities. Without consistent governance, integrating new sites created blind spots across the OT environment.

Why It Worked

Staying secure in the energy sector takes more than checklists and reports. It requires constant visibility, operational awareness, and reliable data that teams can act on. Omny makes that possible, helping providers manage risk, meet compliance, and stay competitive in a demanding industry.
