UTC Joins ISASecure to Boost Utility Cyber Standards

The Utilities Technology Council (UTC) has joined ISASecure, a globally recognized cybersecurity certification program, in a move aimed at bolstering cybersecurity standards across utility infrastructure. The collaboration is expected to enhance the resilience of operational technology (OT) systems that underpin critical utility services.

By aligning with ISASecure, UTC seeks to advance the development and implementation of rigorous cybersecurity practices tailored to the utility sector. The partnership supports efforts to address growing cyber threats targeting industrial control systems and reinforces the importance of standardized security measures across energy and water utilities.

ISASecure provides certifications that validate the security of automation and control system components used in industrial environments. UTC’s participation in this initiative signals a broader commitment within the utilities industry to adopt certified solutions and frameworks that safeguard essential infrastructure.

The announcement reflects an industry-wide shift toward strengthening OT cybersecurity amid evolving digital threats and heightened regulatory expectations.
