Secure field networks for industrial sites

Networks that hold up on remote industrial sites, and stay secure.

Switching and routing, last-mile links, outdoor and camp Wi-Fi, and security cameras, and access control and gates for oil and gas, camps and industrial operations. Designed, configured and commissioned by a CISSP with more than 25 years in oil and gas telecom.

What we do

One site network, built as a system.

On a remote site the link, the switches, the Wi-Fi, the cameras and the gate share the same power, the same backhaul and the same failure points. We design them together so one doesn't take down the others.

Switching & routing

Site networks that are built to a standard

Switches, routers, firewalls and VPNs designed and configured so control, camera, business and crew traffic each stay in their own lane.

Remote sites that stay connected

Starlink, LTE and 5G, private APN and point-to-point radio, with automatic failover and monitoring so you know a site is down before the crew calls.

Wi-Fi that covers the whole yard, pad or camp

Large-area outdoor coverage for yards, plants and pads, and camp Wi-Fi that holds up when every room is streaming after shift.

Eyes on gates, yards and equipment

IP cameras, recorders and remote viewing for industrial sites, on their own network and sized for the link you actually have.

Know who comes through the gate, and when

Door access, gate controllers and video intercoms, mostly on UniFi Access. Every person gets their own credential, gates open from a phone, and every entry is logged. Works with the gate operators you already have.

Most installers make it work. We make it secure.

Dan has held the CISSP in good standing since 2014. Every design starts from an information security foundation, and every system we touch is assessed for security while we work on it.

How security is built in

Control, camera, business and crew traffic kept in separate zones.
Hardened configs, no default passwords, no open remote access.
Security checks during design, configuration and commissioning.
A written security summary for every site, ready for producers, insurers and auditors.

Sound familiar?

Most clients call us after one of these.

A site dropped offline and you found out when the crew called in.
Camp Wi-Fi falls over every night when crews come off shift.
Equipment went missing from the yard and the cameras didn't catch it.
SCADA, cameras and office PCs all share one flat network.
Nobody has a current diagram, and the person who built it has left.
Every site was set up differently, so every fix is a truck roll.
A producer or insurer asked how your field sites are secured, and nobody could answer.

Who we work with

Sites a long way from the office.

Oilfield service companies with rigs, field units and yards. Producers with wellsites, batteries, compressor stations and gas plants. Work camps and lodges. Forestry, mining, construction and municipal sites.

What they have in common: limited links, harsh conditions, nobody on site who owns the network, and real cost when it goes down.

Why "Triad"

In the field, the security triad flips.

Information security rests on three principles: confidentiality, integrity and availability. In an office, confidentiality usually leads. On a remote site, a network that's down is the bigger risk.

Availability: Links up, failover tested, cameras recording, crews connected.
Integrity: Telemetry, control traffic and footage you can trust, on networks kept apart.
Confidentiality: No default passwords, no open remote access, credentials in your name.

How it works

Assess, design, commission, hand over.

Site assessment
Links, switches, Wi-Fi, cameras and power checked against how the site is used, plus a security review of what is already there.
Design and quote
Diagrams, a vendor-neutral bill of materials and a written quote before any work starts.
Commission
We configure and bring it up on site, with your electricians or our partner electrical firms, scheduled around operations.
Hand-over
Diagrams, configs, test results, a security summary and every password handed to you.
