Challenge
Vertex Energy's distributed infrastructure created an expanded attack surface. Legacy OT systems lacked modern security controls, and compliance requirements were increasing.
Approach
We conducted a full security assessment, designed a zero-trust architecture for OT/IT convergence, and implemented monitoring and incident response capabilities.
