Energy & Oil and Gas · Houston native

From the Energy Corridor to the Permian — IT that holds up in the field.

We run IT and OT-aware security for upstream operators, midstream pipelines, and oilfield services firms. Houston-based engineers, satellite-ready remote support, and controls built for the threat model your insurer actually asks about.

What we run for operators

Office, field, and the seam between IT and OT.

We don't pretend to replace your OT vendor. We sit at the IT/OT boundary — where most of the real risk lives — and run the parts upstream operators actually need.

Managed IT
Houston HQ plus field office coverage. Ruggedized-endpoint imaging, satellite and cellular failover, printer and plotter support for engineering teams.
Cybersecurity
MDR with detections mapped to energy-sector TTPs. Email security tuned for vendor-impersonation and invoice-redirect fraud in JIB accounting.
Cloud
M365 GCC where required. Azure-hosted production data lake for engineering archives with immutable backup and 4-hour recovery objectives.
Strategic advisory
vCIO cadence coordinated with your operations VP. Vendor consolidation, insurance renewal prep, diligence support through divestitures.
Fractional executive
Fractional CIO for operators between full-time CIO hires. Board- and sponsor-ready, fluent in lease operating reports and AFEs.
Compliance programs
TSA pipeline security directives, NIST CSF alignment, insurer control questionnaires. Evidence collected continuously, not scrambled at renewal.
Frameworks we speak fluently

The frameworks your operator, insurer, and board care about.

Not a theoretical alignment. A mapped-out control program with evidence, on a cadence, with a named lead.
