So that energy flows: Smart IT for reliable networks

Power at the push of a button - that's what we expect and need: to charge our phones, turn on lights, operate machines, and for critical facilities like hospitals or transportation networks. The constant availability of energy is one of the cornerstones of our society - in all areas of life. Energy suppliers are therefore part of the critical infrastructure (KRITIS), whose IT must meet special requirements.

Behind every stable energy grid stands an equally stable digital network that links, coordinates and secures processes. From large power plants to wind farms to the smallest solar cell - energy supply is a dynamic and highly networked system that relies on IT solutions. CMS IT-Consulting GmbH provides energy suppliers with the necessary IT security and stability to optimally protect this complex system and maintain reliable operations at all times.

From cyber threats to security of supply: What matters

The energy industry is under pressure. It must deliver reliably, be available around the clock, and simultaneously meet increasing security requirements. As the heart of critical infrastructure, it needs IT solutions that are not only stable and secure but also forward-looking. CMS ensures that the technology in the background works smoothly so that energy arrives at the front - safely, efficiently, and always where it is needed.
