As cyber threats targeting ports, vessels, and critical maritime infrastructure continue to increase, organizations face growing pressure to strengthen cyber resilience and meet evolving regulatory requirements. New U.S. Coast Guard cybersecurity regulations are driving a shift from awareness to action, requiring operators to implement formal cybersecurity programs, training, and response planning.

As utilities and renewable energy operators adapt to evolving NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) requirements, vendor remote access has become an increasing area of focus. New standards strengthen expectations around access controls, monitoring, and cybersecurity oversight for third-party connections to critical systems. In this article, EverLine's Brandon Ware outlines the latest requirements, highlights common compliance challenges, and shares practical considerations for reducing cyber risk while maintaining operational efficiency.

As the compliance deadline for new NERC Inverter-Based Resource (IBR) requirements approaches, many solar, wind, battery energy storage, and hybrid generation facilities may be subject to registration and reliability obligations for the first time. These changes expand regulatory oversight and introduce new compliance expectations for qualifying assets connected to the Bulk Electric System. In this article, EverLine's Brandon Ware explains what the new requirements mean, which organizations may be affected, and the steps operators should take now to prepare and reduce compliance risk.

As renewable generation continues to grow, NERC reliability standards are evolving to address emerging operational and grid stability challenges. New requirements place greater emphasis on inverter-based resources, system performance, cybersecurity, and compliance oversight. In this article, EverLine's Brandon Ware explores how these changes are reshaping renewable operations and what organizations should consider to maintain compliance while supporting a reliable and resilient electric grid.

American pipeline operators are at the forefront of efforts to safeguard domestic oil and gas infrastructure under the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) ever-evolving pipeline security initiatives. Utilities are being challenged to offer greater value and improve aging infrastructure management while ensuring uninterrupted and efficient service.

Water covers 70 percent of our planet, and it is easy to think that it will always be abundant. However, freshwater—what we drink, bathe in, and irrigate our farm fields with—is incredibly rare.

The energy sector is experiencing a massive digital transformation. This process is revolutionizing energy production, transmission, storage and consumption.
