Energy & Utilities
Bring AI to critical infrastructure - governed, resilient, and audit-ready.
Utilities are putting AI into forecasting, grid operations, and field work while sitting inside some of the strictest reliability and cybersecurity rules anywhere. DataStrict governs every prompt, tool call, and agent action against enforced policy - so AI reaches operational technology without widening the attack surface or breaking the audit trail regulators expect.
The pressure
The risk isn't the model. It's what reaches it.
Generative AI raises the stakes on data that was already regulated. These are the pressures DataStrict was built to hold for you.
- 01
AI and agents reaching into OT and grid-control systems that were never meant to take open-ended instructions.
- 02
Market-sensitive and customer usage data leaking into prompts, vendor models, and chat logs.
- 03
Reliability and cybersecurity obligations that examiners expect to see applied to AI, not just legacy control systems.
- 04
AI used as a safety component in critical infrastructure, now carrying high-risk duties under emerging rules.
What we enforce
Controls that run, evidence that holds.
Deny-by-default access to OT
Agents get least privilege: grid-control, dispatch, and field systems stay denied unless a policy explicitly allows the action for that purpose.
Market and customer data stays put
The Fabric detects and redacts market-sensitive and usage data at the boundary, before any prompt leaves your environment.
Evidence for reliability audits
Every policy is versioned code and every decision is written to the hash-chained Ledger, ready to hand an auditor or regulator.
Obligations
Mapped to the rules you answer to.
NERC CIP
↗North American critical infrastructure protection standards for the bulk electric system - access control, monitoring, and audit.
EU AI Act
↗AI used as a safety component in the management of critical infrastructure is a high-risk use case with oversight duties.
NIST CSF
↗The Cybersecurity Framework widely adopted by utilities to govern, identify, protect, detect, and respond.
NIS2
↗EU directive raising security and reporting obligations for essential entities, including energy operators.
