For Energy & Utilities
See ORCA Opti for U.S. Energy
Investor-owned utilities, public power, cooperatives, generators, transmission operators and ISOs/RTOs all face the most-mature OT regulator stack on the planet — NERC CIP, FERC, TSA pipeline directives, the EPA water-sector cyber rule, and a steady rise in state-aligned and ransomware activity against the grid. ORCA Opti brings every framework into one program so reliability and resilience read the same.
NERC CIP ready, every audit
NERC CIP ready, every audit
NERC CIP-002 through CIP-014 mapped to controls and continuous evidence, with TFE and self-report workflows in one place.
CISA, TSA and EPA covered
CISA, TSA and EPA covered
Pipeline, rail, aviation-cargo and water-sector security directives mapped to controls and ready for inspection.
OT, AMI and grid data in the Safe Zone
OT, AMI and grid data in the Safe Zone
OT telemetry, AMI smart-meter data and grid records inside the Safe Zone, with AI Guardian blocking leakage to external AI.
Governed AI for grid, load and trading
Governed AI for grid, load and trading
Use AI for load forecasting, outage prediction and power trading with the audit trail FERC, NERC and the board expect.
The pressure
What utility CISOs face
OT under attack, climate disclosure ramping up, and a grid transition to renewables and DERs that multiplies the attack surface.
OT ransomware and APT
OT ransomware and APT
U.S. energy was the second-most attacked sector last year. OT-targeting ransomware can spill from IT and trigger grid disturbance.
NERC CIP audit cycles
NERC CIP audit cycles
NERC CIP audits, spot checks and self-reports demand evidence-grade controls and clean change records, every quarter of every year.
Smart-meter data privacy
Smart-meter data privacy
Advanced metering infrastructure means tariffs, lifestyle insights and personal data flowing at scale. State privacy and FERC both expect controls.
SEC climate and ESG reporting
SEC climate and ESG reporting
Investors, lenders and the SEC expect Scope 1-3 emissions, climate transition and ESG disclosures backed by evidence, not estimates.
Frameworks built in

ORCA Opti ships with the standards U.S. energy runs on, from NERC to IEC and ISO. Controls pre-mapped, evidence structured and reporting current.
NERC CIP-002 to CIP-014
Full NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection standard set mapped to controls, evidence and TFE workflows.
FERC & TSA directives
FERC reliability and TSA pipeline security directives applied alongside NERC CIP in one control set.
IEC 62443 & ISA 99
Operational technology controls applied across substations, plants and DER aggregations.
State PUC privacy & CCPA
State public utility commission privacy and customer-data requirements mapped to evidence.
CIRCIA & DOE reporting
CIRCIA 72-hour reporting and DOE OE-417 electric incident reporting handled by one workflow.
ISO 27001 & ISO 27019
Information security plus the energy-utility extension, the lingua franca for cross-border partners.
