THE THREAT LANDSCAPE

When the grid is the target, the control room is the prize.

Critical infrastructure operators face mounting pressure from targeted security threats, state-sponsored cyber intrusions, and physical sabotage — pressure that grows every year as adversaries focus on the systems that power, move, and supply modern society.

Our SCIF solutions enable infrastructure organizations to safeguard sensitive operational data, system designs, and mission-critical communications — supporting secure control centers, project planning, and sensitive engineering operations while maintaining regulatory compliance and operational continuity.

We ensure all projects meet or exceed federal SCIF standards and industry security frameworks.

FOUR PRIMARY VECTORS

01   Nation-state cyber intrusion targeting SCADA and ICS networks

02   Industrial espionage targeting system designs and engineering data

03   Physical sabotage and unauthorized access to control facilities

04   Regulatory exposure under NERC CIP, CFATS, and TSA directives

WHAT WE PROVIDE

Five core capabilities. One mission-ready facility.

Every infrastructure SCIF we deliver combines these five protective layers — engineered as a single integrated system, certified together, and accredited as one.

01

Shielding and TEMPEST

Advanced physical and electronic security combining RF shielding, TEMPEST protection, and emanation control — preventing electronic surveillance of control rooms and engineering operations.

RF SHIELDED · TEMPEST · EMANATION CONTROL

02

Access Control

Biometric entry, mantrap configurations, and UL 2050 alarm integration — preventing unauthorized physical access to control systems, engineering spaces, and sensitive infrastructure operations.

BIOMETRIC · MANTRAP · UL 2050

03

Sound Attenuation (STC)

STC-rated sound masking and isolation materials engineered into every wall, ceiling, and door — protecting confidential communications, operational discussions, and engineering reviews.

STC RATED · MASKING · ICD 705

04

Federal Standards Compliance

Full compliance with federal SCIF standards and infrastructure security frameworks — ensuring secure handling of classified or proprietary information across regulated operational environments.

05

Turnkey, Rapid Deploy

Flexible, modular designs for temporary and permanent deployments within facilities and control systems. Turnkey solutions support facility upgrades, system integration, and field operations.

MODULAR · TURNKEY · RAPID DEPLOY

Trusted by government agencies, industrial operators, and critical infrastructure partners to protect sensitive data, maintain operational integrity, and enable secure infrastructure operations.

OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS

From control room to field operations.

Critical infrastructure spans many operational environments. We deliver the right SCIF for each — built to the same standard, accredited to the same level.

ENVIRONMENT 01

Control Centers

Secure SCADA, ICS, and grid control rooms — shielded environments protecting real-time operational systems from electronic surveillance and cyber-physical attack.

ENVIRONMENT 02

Engineering Spaces

Sensitive engineering workspaces for system design, schematic review, and proprietary infrastructure planning — protecting intellectual property and operational architecture.

ENVIRONMENT 03

Project Planning Rooms

Secure planning spaces for major capital projects, infrastructure expansions, and inter-agency coordination — protecting plans, schedules, and program-sensitive information.

ENVIRONMENT 04

Cybersecurity Operations

OT/IT security operations centers built to handle incident response, threat intelligence, and 24/7 monitoring of operational technology and ICS environments.

ENVIRONMENT 05

Field Operations

Forward-deployed SCIFs for remote substations, pipeline corridors, and field operations — accredited mobile facilities for distributed infrastructure work.

ENVIRONMENT 06

Upgrade Continuity SCIFs

Rapid-deploy SCIFs maintaining operational continuity during facility upgrades, system integration projects, or major infrastructure modernization efforts.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What infrastructure operators ask first.

Yes. Our 20-foot and 40-foot ISO container SCIFs are accredited as relocatable facilities under ICD 705 and ship with full RF and STC test reports. We have delivered to remote substations, pipeline corridors, and field sites via truck, rail, and commercial transport. Each unit is operational within days of arrival.

We deliver to NSA TEMPEST Level I and Level II as standard. Each facility includes multi-layer welded RF shielding, isolated power conditioning, and shielded penetrations for SCADA, ICS, HVAC, and power. Level III is available on request for the most sensitive operational environments.

Roughly half the time. Because our facilities are fabricated off-site in parallel with your site prep, total delivery typically runs 50 percent faster than ground-up construction — critical when system cutovers, regulatory deadlines, or modernization milestones won’t wait.

Yes. Our facilities are built to ICD 705 and integrate cleanly with infrastructure security frameworks including NERC CIP, CFATS, and TSA pipeline security directives. Every facility ships with the documentation needed to support your existing certifications and regulatory audits.

Routinely. Our panelized modular SCIFs are designed for installation inside existing operational environments — including drop-in installations adjacent to active control rooms, industrial spaces, and engineering bays with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

As-built architectural drawings, RF shielding test reports, STC sound attenuation reports, fire suppression and IDS commissioning records, UL 2050 alarm certification, TEMPEST emanation test data, and a full ICD 705 compliance matrix — with mappings to NERC CIP, CFATS, and TSA directives available on request.
