Solar & Renewable Energy Security

Securing the Solar Revolution

Secure inverters, SCADA, and monitoring platforms across every site. Scan Ninja finds what's exposed, prioritizes what attackers are actually exploiting, and proves each fix — with evidence for NERC CIP where your assets fall under it.

Why Solar Security Is Hard

Solar operations combine distributed sites, vendor-managed equipment, and grid-connected control systems — a combination that is hard to see and harder to prove secure.

Distributed Infrastructure

Inverters, gateways, monitoring platforms, and remote-access paths spread across many sites — each one a potential entry point.

Every connected site widens the attack surface

Supply Chain & Vendor Access

Third-party firmware and vendor remote access into your sites carry vulnerabilities you didn't write and can't always see.

Vendor risk belongs in the same risk view as your own

Compliance & Insurance Scrutiny

Utilities, insurers, and — for bulk electric system assets — NERC CIP auditors want documented proof that risks are found and fixed.

NERC CIP covers bulk electric system assets; many distributed sites fall outside it

Purpose-Built for Solar Infrastructure

From single sites to utility-scale portfolios: find vulnerabilities, fix what matters, and prove it.

Inverter & Connected Device Security

Find and fix vulnerabilities in inverters, optimizers, gateways, and connected monitoring systems.

  • Vulnerability scanning of connected devices
  • Prioritization by exploitability and CISA KEV status
  • Passive, non-intrusive signals for sensitive OT where possible
  • Remediation tracked through verified closure

SCADA & Monitoring Platform Protection

Reduce exposure of SCADA networks and monitoring platforms to unauthorized access.

  • Exposure checks on internet-facing portals and remote access
  • Network segmentation validation
  • Penetration testing for SCADA and monitoring applications
  • Threat intelligence from 500+ sources

Multi-Site Portfolio Management

One security view for developers, EPCs, and operators managing many installations.

  • Unified risk view across every site
  • Per-site vulnerability tracking
  • Multi-tenant, white-label reporting for EPCs and MSPs
  • Executive, engineering, and auditor views

Compliance Evidence

Audit-ready evidence for the frameworks you answer to — NERC CIP for bulk electric system assets, ISO 27001, and SOC 2.

  • Scan-based evidence with verified remediation
  • Auditor-ready evidence exports
  • Answers for insurer security questionnaires
  • Continuous monitoring between audits

Solar Threat Scenarios

The threats that matter most to solar operations, and how Scan Ninja addresses each.

Inverter Firmware Exploits

Vulnerable firmware enabling remote shutdown or production loss

Impact: Lost generation, remote shutdown risk
Scan Ninja Solution: Continuous CVE monitoring with known-exploited (KEV) prioritization

Compromised Monitoring Portals

Stolen or weak credentials leading to unauthorized system access

Impact: Unauthorized control, data exposure
Scan Ninja Solution: Exposure scanning of portals and remote-access paths

Supply Chain Compromise

Vulnerable third-party firmware or vendor access creating persistent entry points

Impact: Long-term operational compromise
Scan Ninja Solution: Vendor firmware and access risk tracked alongside your own findings

SCADA System Breaches

Network intrusions affecting grid interconnection and safety

Impact: Interconnection loss, safety risks
Scan Ninja Solution: Network segmentation validation + penetration testing

Frequently Asked Questions

Does NERC CIP apply to solar?

Only to solar assets that are part of the bulk electric system, such as larger utility-scale facilities connected at transmission voltage. Many distributed and community solar sites fall outside NERC CIP, though utilities, insurers, and interconnection agreements often still expect documented security. Scan Ninja produces scan-based evidence and remediation proof you can use either way.

Will scanning disrupt our energy production?

OT and SCADA systems are sensitive to intrusive scanning. Scan Ninja works from passive, non-intrusive signals wherever possible and schedules active scans in the maintenance windows you specify.

Does Scan Ninja connect to our monitoring platform?

Scan Ninja assesses inverters, gateways, and monitoring platforms from scan-based and network signals rather than depending on vendor-specific integrations. Tell us which platforms you run and we'll confirm coverage during scoping.

How long does it take to get started?

It starts with a scoping call to define in-scope sites and network access, followed by a first scan. The timeline depends on how many sites you have and how they're connected.

What if we already have a security team?

Scan Ninja augments your team with continuous scanning, prioritization, and evidence collection, so they spend their time fixing what matters instead of triaging scanner output.

How is this different from a penetration test?

A penetration test is a point-in-time snapshot. Scan Ninja monitors continuously, tracks every finding to verified closure, and can include penetration testing for your SCADA and monitoring applications.

Find Your Exposure Before Attackers Do

Attackers routinely scan the internet for exposed monitoring portals and remote-access services. Know what yours look like from the outside — and prove you've closed the gaps.
