Renfinity's Secure Grid® was created as a response to the challenges emergency responders experienced during the 9/11 tragedy. It is designed to provide cybersecure smart city enterprise integration to assist in providing comprehensive access to the critical information needed prior to, during and after threats to the public safety.  In addition to providing critical situational awareness to responders at the federal, state and local levels, our FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) compliant solutions provide emergency responders with many of the tools that assist in returning communities to safe and secure states.   From identifying power outages, damaged structures, flooding concerns and fire hazards, responders can improve response strategies and solutions

Smart Cities and Cybersecurity

Smart cities offer greater information and efficiencies for their citizens, however, the same internet connectivity that enables these efficiencies can be used to deliver physical damage to infrastructure and also cause loss of life if accessed by malicious actors.  The use of more and more technology to innovate around the management of cities and their infrastructure, create new attack surfaces that can be exploited.
