Like many large organizations, electric utilities face infrastructure-security issues such as hardware failure, data breaches, or cyberattacks. As the electric power grid is such a high-profile target for attackers and would-be infiltrators, monitoring and remediating vulnerabilities is a top priority. However, the massive volume of data from multiple public sources of this information, combined with a lack of structural consistency in the data, make it daunting for utilities to effectively use the information and stay ahead of their vulnerabilities.

YoJonesy partnered with our research-institution client’s Technology Innovation team to create a web application that acts as a dashboard for monitoring vulnerabilities. It normalizes data from multiple sources and provides a clean modern user experience that includes a fast and easy-to-use search capability and clear visual indicators of asset vulnerability mitigation status.
The Virtual NDE (non-destructive evaluation) software application simulates the conditions and functions of manual ultrasonic scans and allows users to gain experience performing inspections using techniques similar to those used with the instruments on actual specimens.
Utilities need to know which assets are vulnerable, report on the state of their assets and make a plan for remediation. The Advanced Vulnerability Grading Tool gives them the key information they need to evaluate, manage up/down, and resolve their vulnerabilities all in a visually appealing, interactive dashboard.
