Scaling Cyber Protection for US Critical Infrastructure: How Elastic Supports the Community Cyber Resilience Foundation

Elastic, Friday, November 6th, 2026

Elastic powers capabilities in the Dragos Platform to help the Community Cyber Resilience Foundation protect small US utilities.

Small US water, gas and electric utilities face growing cyberattacks while lacking budget, staff and forensic expertise.

A joint advisory from NSA, CISA, FBI, DOE and EPA noted that AI has lowered the expertise and time needed to exploit industrial control systems, and attackers have used AI-generated scripts against Siemens PLCs.

Threat actors, including ransomware groups such as SafePay, are exploiting internet-facing PLCs and edge devices, and some utility attacks have locked operators out of their OT networks.

Elastic says it powers cybersecurity capabilities within the Dragos Platform that support the new Community Cyber Resilience Foundation in protecting under-resourced utilities.
