Oil & Gas

The enterprise browser built for the oil & gas industry

A Zero Trust Browser Solution to Protect Oil and Gas Operations from Advanced Cyber Threats and Operational Vulnerabilities.

Enabling Secure Access

Secure Remote Operations and Workforce

BYOD Enablement:

Oil and gas companies often have employees working in remote or hazardous environments where using personal devices is essential. Primary allows for secure access to critical enterprise systems, ensuring workers can safely connect to corporate data without exposing vulnerabilities​.

Privileged Access Management: In oil and gas operations, privileged access is required for sensitive systems (such as SCADA or ERP systems). Primary ensures that only authorized personnel access critical applications, enforcing zero-trust principles with dynamic policy creation and enforcement​.

Instant Threat Prevention

Real-time protection and secure access

  • Compliance with Industry Regulations

    Oil and gas companies are subject to stringent regulations around data security and privacy. Primary offers granular control over data governance to meet compliance standards like GDPR and CCPA. It enables detailed visibility into user activities, helping organizations demonstrate compliance during audits​.

  • Protection Against Cybersecurity Threats

    The energy sector is a frequent target of cyberattacks, especially ransomware and phishing attempts. Primary provides real-time protection against these threats by integrating anti-malware, phishing-resistant MFA, and browser isolation features, helping to secure the vast network of systems used in oil and gas operations​​.

  • Third-Party Contractor Access

    The oil and gas industry often relies on third-party contractors for drilling, transport, and other specialized services. Primary ensures secure access for contractors while maintaining control over sensitive corporate data, preventing data leakage or unauthorized access.

  • VDI Replacement

    Oil and gas companies using traditional VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) can optimize costs by replacing it with Primary. This browser provides a lighter, cost-effective alternative to VDI while ensuring security and user productivity, even in bandwidth-constrained environments.

Overcome Legacy Browser Limitations

Traditional Browser Challenges in Modern Enterprises

  • Before Primary

    As an IT manager in a modern enterprise, you're dealing with the rapid digital transformation of the workplace. Critical applications and sensitive data are being accessed through web browsers every day. This opens up new security challenges: vulnerabilities in consumer-grade browsers, lack of visibility into browser activity, and compliance risks.
    Managing access and protecting data across remote workers, third-party contractors, and multiple devices becomes increasingly difficult. Tools like traditional VPNs or VDI setups are costly, slow, and often disrupt the user experience.
  • After Primary

    Imagine a secure, seamless browsing experience built specifically for business. With Primary's Zero Trust Browser, your organization gains full control over how users access SaaS applications, internal systems, and corporate data, no matter where they are. The browser also provides real-time protection against phishing, malware, and other browser-based threats.
    Compliance is no longer a concern with advanced data governance, visibility into all browser activity, and customizable security policies. With Primary, you eliminate the inefficiencies of legacy solutions like VDI while enhancing security, all with a lower total cost of ownership and a significant increase in ROI.

Advanced Protective Measures

Strengthening Cybersecurity in Oil and Gas with Primary’s Zero Trust Browser

As cyberattacks on the oil and gas sector become increasingly frequent and sophisticated, Primary’s Zero Trust Browser offers a proactive and targeted defense solution.

The industry’s susceptibility to ransomware and AI-driven phishing attacks, compounded by the rise of automated vulnerability exploitation, calls for advanced protective measures that legacy systems often lack. Primary’s browser architecture, designed specifically for enterprise security, integrates malware protection, phishing resistance, and continuous authentication at the browser level. This level of built-in security is critical for oil and gas companies, where the stakes are high, and attacks can have severe economic and operational repercussions.

Security Standards Met

Extend your security protocols

Supply chain vulnerabilities also pose significant risks in oil and gas, as third-party vendors can introduce weaknesses into otherwise secure systems.

With Primary’s comprehensive oversight and data governance features, companies can extend their security protocols to third-party contractors, ensuring that all external access aligns with internal security standards.

This helps oil and gas companies maintain control over data while minimizing potential entry points for cyber threats. Detailed audit logs provide visibility into user activity, enabling organizations to quickly identify and address any unusual access patterns that could indicate compromised vendor accounts.

Safest Browsing Solution

Granular Permissions for Enhanced Security

Amid evolving regulatory and geopolitical pressures, compliance has become a pressing issue.

Primary simplifies compliance with frameworks like those from the TSA by offering granular data controls and continuous monitoring. This ensures that companies can meet regulatory requirements without adding complexity to their operations.

In an environment where state-sponsored threats and insider risks are ever-present, Primary’s Zero Trust Browser offers oil and gas firms a secure, manageable, and compliant browsing solution that strengthens their cybersecurity posture and protects against the diverse and evolving threats the industry faces.
