GRC for energy & utilities, secure the grid, OT and IT.

Q: How does Compyl help with NERC CIP compliance?

Compyl maps your controls to each NERC CIP standard — CIP-004 through CIP-011 — and continuously collects evidence from your identity, monitoring, and OT systems. Evidence Health flags stale proof early, so a CIP audit is a formality instead of a scramble, and you reduce the risk of costly violations.

Critical infrastructure operators answer to NERC CIP, FERC, and TSA while defending converged OT and IT environments. Compyl maps one control library across these mandates and IEC 62443, so you stay continuously audit-ready and avoid the steep penalties of a CIP violation.

What does compliance for energy & utilities require?

Energy and utility operators must meet NERC CIP standards for bulk electric system security, FERC oversight, and TSA security directives for pipelines, while securing operational technology (OT/ICS) alongside IT. Many align to IEC 62443 for industrial control systems and NIST CSF / SP 800-82. Compyl maps one control library across these mandates, bridging OT and IT, with continuous evidence and monitoring.

The challenge

Why GRC is harder in energy & utilities

NERC CIP enforcement & fines

CIP violations carry some of the steepest penalties in any industry, and auditors expect continuous, documented evidence.

OT/ICS security

Legacy industrial control systems weren't built for modern security, yet they must be protected and evidenced alongside IT.

Expanding mandates

TSA directives, IEC 62443 adoption, and new cyber rules keep widening the scope you must track and prove.

How Compyl helps

One platform across OT and IT

Map one control library to every grid mandate

Define controls once and cross-map them to NERC CIP, TSA directives, IEC 62443, and NIST, so evidence collected once proves them across OT and IT.

No duplicate work across CIP standards or mandates.
New requirements reuse controls you already have.

Network segmentation verified

OT/IT boundary monitored

Bring OT and IT into one program

Monitor controls across both your corporate IT and your operational technology environments, so the boundary between them stops being a blind spot.

Unify OT and IT evidence in one control library.

Evidence refreshes automatically and is scored for health, so you're audit-ready every day of the year.

Agentic AI, human approved

AI drafts evidence, maps controls, and triages risk; your experts approve every decision.

Energy & Utilities FAQ

Common questions

Energy and utility operators must meet NERC CIP standards for bulk electric system security, FERC oversight, and TSA security directives for pipelines, while securing OT/ICS alongside IT. Many align to IEC 62443 and NIST CSF / SP 800-82. Compyl maps one control library across all of them, spanning OT and IT.

Compyl maps your controls to each NERC CIP standard, CIP-004 through CIP-011, and continuously collects evidence from your identity, monitoring, and OT systems. Evidence Health flags stale proof early, so a CIP audit is a formality instead of a scramble, and you reduce the risk of costly violations.

Yes. Compyl brings operational technology (OT/ICS) and corporate IT into one control library and evidence base, so the boundary between them stops being a compliance blind spot and you can prove security consistently across both.

Yes. With cross-mapping, evidence of network segmentation can satisfy NERC CIP-005, IEC 62443 SR 5.1, TSA directive requirements, NIST CSF PR.AC, and NIST 800-82 at once, collected once and counted everywhere it applies.
