GRC for Energy & Utilities — OT/IT Risk, BCM, and NCA ECC
Energy companies and utilities face combined OT/IT risk, critical infrastructure designations under NCA, and complex supply chain dependencies. Sentinel Unity's BCM, cyber risk, and TPRM modules are built for the operational realities of the energy sector.
Industry Challenges
What energy GRC teams manage
Sentinel Unity was designed around the unique risk profile and regulatory obligations of energy sector organizations in the GCC.
OT/ICS Security Risk
Operational technology and industrial control systems create unique cyber risks not covered by standard IT security frameworks — requiring specialized risk taxonomies and domain expertise.
Critical Infrastructure Designation
Operators designated as critical national infrastructure under KSA rules are subject to mandatory NCA ECC compliance, including Domain 5 (ICS Security) obligations.
Complex Supply Chain
Equipment vendors, O&M contractors, and managed service providers create a deep third-party risk surface that must be continuously assessed and monitored.
Business Continuity Pressure
Operational disruption carries enormous financial and social consequences — requiring rigorous BIA, recovery planning, and continuity exercise programs.
NCA Incident Notification
As critical infrastructure operators, energy companies must notify NCA of significant cybersecurity incidents within strict regulatory timelines.
Platform Value
GRC purpose-built for energy operations
From OT risk management to BCM and vendor due diligence — one platform covers the full scope of energy sector GRC.
OT/ICS Risk Registry
Capture OT and ICS-specific risks alongside traditional IT risks in one unified register — with domain-appropriate risk categories for industrial environments.
BCM & Resilience Planning
Business impact analysis, recovery time objectives, DR plans, and continuity exercise management — all integrated with the risk register.
Energy Supply Chain TPRM
Manage equipment vendors, O&M contractors, and technology providers with automated tiering, due diligence campaigns, and contract security clause tracking.
NCA ECC Domain 5 Support
Pre-built assessment templates for NCA ECC Domain 5 (Industrial Control Systems Security) with maturity scoring and evidence management.

What practitioners tell us
“Sentinel Unity gave us a single source of truth for NCA ECC compliance. Assessments and gap reports are exactly what our CISO needs for the board.”
Fahad Al-Rashid
Chief Information Security Officer
Diversified group, GCC
“SAMA CSF used to mean an annual scramble. TPRM and vendor assessments are now continuous — with evidence we can stand behind.”
