The energy sector forms a crucial part of critical national infrastructure, which makes it a valued target for state or non-state players seeking to gain military or political advantage or cause chaos and disruption. In the recent past, attacks on critical infrastructure have surged. As such, the subject of security in the energy sector should be of greater concern. While loss/theft of data may be concerning, loss of electricity or water can be catastrophic.
