performing-oil-gas-cybersecurity-assessment

This skill covers conducting cybersecurity assessments specific to oil and gas facilities including upstream (exploration/production), midstream (pipeline/transport), and downstream (refining/distribution) operations. It addresses SCADA systems controlling pipeline operations, DCS for refinery process control, safety instrumented systems for hazardous processes, remote terminal units at unmanned wellhead sites, and compliance with API 1164, TSA Pipeline Security Directives, IEC 62443, and NIST Cybersecurity Framework for critical infrastructure.

Performing Oil & Gas Cybersecurity Assessment

When to Use

When conducting a cybersecurity assessment of a refinery, pipeline, or production facility
When preparing for TSA Pipeline Security Directive compliance (SD-01, SD-02)
When assessing cybersecurity posture against API Standard 1164 (Pipeline SCADA Security)
When evaluating the security of remote wellhead SCADA systems and satellite communications
When a merger, acquisition, or regulatory audit requires a comprehensive OT security evaluation

Do not use for IT-only corporate network assessments of oil and gas companies, for physical security assessments without a cyber component, or for environmental compliance assessments.

Prerequisites

Written authorization from facility management and operations team
Understanding of oil and gas operations (upstream, midstream, downstream processes)
Familiarity with API 1164, TSA SD-01/SD-02, IEC 62443, and NIST CSF
Passive monitoring tools for OT network traffic capture
Access to network diagrams, SCADA architecture documentation, and safety studies (HAZOP)

Workflow

Step 1: Scope Assessment Based on Facility Type

Oil and gas facilities have unique characteristics based on their operational segment that affect the assessment approach.
