NEVERHACK + Infosim® | Smart, Automated, Secure
The challenge of energy digitalisation in Spain
Spain's power distribution network is undergoing a major digital transformation. Thousands of medium-voltage transformation centres — spread throughout urban and rural areas — are not only responsible for voltage conversion, but also serve as critical communication nodes, linking smart meters to the data centres of energy providers.
These environments rely heavily on industrial-grade routers using 3G mobile networks for data transmission. However, with the ongoing 3G network shutdown, energy companies are now facing an urgent challenge: replacing thousands of devices with 4G/5G routers in a short timeframe, while maintaining operational continuity and ensuring cybersecurity.
Traditional manual replacement and configuration processes are slow, resource-intensive, and pose significant security risks, as they often require direct access to critical infrastructure by third-party technicians.
The solution: NEVERHACK x Infosim®
To address this challenge, NEVERHACK and Infosim® have joined forces to deliver a comprehensive, secure, and scalable solution tailored for Operational Technology (OT) environments, such as electrical transformation centres.
By combining the StableNet® platform from Infosim® with NEVERHACK’s cybersecurity expertise, organisations can remotely manage and provision thousands of devices—automatically and securely.
Key features of the joint solution:
Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP): Routers automatically configure themselves upon startup. Only physical replacement is performed on-site—everything else is handled remotely.
Security by design: No need for direct access via SSH, Telnet, or serial ports, effectively reducing attack surfaces and safeguarding critical infrastructure.
Multi-vendor, multi-model compatibility: Designed to operate across diverse hardware ecosystems.
Centralised and scalable management: Enables firmware updates, configuration changes, and full monitoring of large-scale device fleets from a single platform.
A real-world deployment in Spain
In a recent pilot project with a major energy provider in Spain, the joint solution was successfully validated using ruggedised industrial routers designed for extreme environments: heat, humidity, electromagnetic interference, and dust.
The result: a fully automated, secure, and scalable deployment, aligned with the operational and regulatory requirements of the Spanish energy sector—minimising downtime and risk.
A collaborative ecosystem
- Infosim®, a leading provider of network and service management solutions, delivers the automation and visibility capabilities through its StableNet® platform.
