Romgaz announced a “considerable advance in strengthening the security of Romania’s critical energy infrastructure” through the successful implementation of an advanced cyber security solution, developed by NS Edge, an US company considered innovative for its cutting-edge technologies in the field of cyber threat intelligence.

Romgaz’s implementation and successful performance of the NS Edge solution, supported by the US Foreign Trade Service and the Romanian Ministry of Energy, has set a new security standard for threat intelligence and defense in the energy sector.

Răzvan Popescu, General Manager of Romgaz, said: “For Romgaz, compliance with the NIS 2 Directive is not only a regulatory requirement, but also an opportunity to strengthen our commitment to cyber security. The collaboration with NS Edge exemplifies our proactive approach to integrating leading technologies that improve our cybersecurity posture. This partnership underscores our commitment to supporting innovative solutions and our continued desire to excel in protecting critical infrastructure. Such actions reflect Romgaz’s commitment to comply with the highest security and resilience standards”.

The NS Edge solution is among Romgaz’s cybersecurity initiatives, and the implementation of this cutting-edge technology has been a success, providing real-time detection of cyber threats while efficiently processing large volumes of data with minimal computing resources.

The partnership between Romgaz and NS Edge is further strengthened by the support of the CleanTech Nexus program, an initiative launched by the Ministry of Energy of Romania, Techcelerator and the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Moldova. This program promotes cross-border innovation and collaboration, helping to advance sustainable and secure energy solutions.
