Cybersecurity Solutions for Water Utilities and Treatment
Protecting Water Utility IT Systems, Staff Endpoints, and Citizen Data from Cyber Threats
Overview
Water Utilities Cybersecurity Solutions
Water treatment facilities and public utilities rely on interconnected digital systems to manage data, billing, and operations. As these systems modernize, they become targets for ransomware, phishing, and data theft campaigns that can disrupt essential services.
Heimdal® delivers comprehensive cybersecurity solutions for water treatment organizations, helping them protect IT networks, administrative systems, and sensitive data from evolving threats. Our unified platform integrates prevention, detection, and response — simplifying cybersecurity management for resource-constrained public sector teams.
Challenges
Protecting Water Utilities from Rising Cyber Threats and Risks
Safeguarding Critical Information and Services
-
Cyberattacks can halt administrative systems, billing platforms, and internal communications in water authorities.
-
Ransomware and data breaches put citizen data and operational continuity at risk.
-
Heimdal helps prevent these incidents with proactive multi-layer protection across DNS, endpoint, and email systems.
Meeting Regulatory and Security Obligations
-
Water authorities and public utilities handle sensitive citizen and infrastructure data subject to GDPR, ISO 27001, and NIS2.
-
Maintaining audit trails and proving compliance is challenging for small IT teams.
-
Heimdal supports compliance with automated patching, privilege control, and detailed logging for accountability.
Achieving Resilience with Smaller Teams
-
Many municipal and regional water organizations operate with limited cybersecurity staff.
-
Managing multiple point tools increases complexity and cost.
-
Heimdal’s unified security platform provides centralized visibility and automated response to simplify operations and strengthen resilience.
Solution
Unified Cybersecurity Platform to Protect Water Utilities
Heimdal’s unified XDR platform secures the digital infrastructure that supports water treatment operations—bringing DNS Security, Next-Gen Antivirus with Extended Threat Protection (XTP), Privileged Access Management, Email Security, Ransomware Encryption Protection, and hyper-automated Patch & Asset Management together in a single platform. This consolidated approach reduces tool sprawl and strengthens prevention, detection, and response across networks, servers, and endpoints that underpin essential water services.
Simplified Security and Infrastructure Management
With one dashboard for endpoint, network, and identity layers, Heimdal replaces fragmented point tools with an AI-driven, unified platform, lowering operational burden while improving speed and consistency of security actions. This platform approach—rather than isolated products—enables proactive protection and advanced threat hunting without the overhead of multiple vendors or consoles.
Compliance and Regulatory Assurance
Water authorities must evidence strong governance under frameworks such as NIS2, GDPR, ISO 27001, NIST, Cyber Essentials, and the Cybersecurity Assurance Framework (CAF). Heimdal supports these needs with automated audit trails, continuous monitoring, CVE/CVSS tracking, and policy enforcement—helping teams stay audit-ready across distributed environments.
Operational Resilience and Continuity of Essential Services
Heimdal’s hyper-automation deploys updates in ~4 hours versus 16 days with traditional methods—a 95% faster response—reducing exposure windows and helping keep critical systems online. Silent, zero-disruption updates and flexible scheduling preserve productivity while patches roll out across Windows, Linux, and macOS.
Unified Visibility and Intelligent Threat Response
Heimdal provides integrated threat hunting and SIEM-level analytics to correlate user, endpoint, and network activity—backed by audit trails surfaced through the Threat-hunting & Action Center (TAC). This gives security teams faster, evidence-based investigations and response, with exportable logs to support compliance reporting.
Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity Expertise
Heimdal is a unified, cloud-based cybersecurity provider serving 16k+ customers globally with an integrated XDR platform purpose-built to reduce alert fatigue and enable proactive security operations.
