Industries We Serve

Specialized expertise for East Harris County / Houston Ship Channel's key industries.

Refining, Olefins and Gas Processing

The ExxonMobil complex, Cedar Bayou and the Mont Belvieu fractionation hub run process networks where a compromised engineering workstation is a safety issue, not an IT ticket. We keep the business side under 24/7 SOC monitoring without touching process control, put PAM and application allowlisting on engineering and historian workstations in the industrial DMZ and replace standing vendor VPN accounts with brokered, recorded sessions.

Turnaround and Industrial Services Contractors

Scaffolding, insulation, inspection and mechanical firms add a wave of accounts before a turnaround and rarely remove them all afterward, which is how stale credentials become the way in. We build identity lifecycle with expiration dates attached, enforce MFA on email and file sharing, watch for impossible-travel sign-ins during the event and harden project accounting against the fraudulent invoice and change-order emails aimed at it.

Cedar Port Distribution and Logistics

Warehouses in TGS Cedar Port live on WMS, TMS and EDI connections that ransomware crews and freight-fraud schemes both target. We allowlist what runs on scanners and office endpoints, segment operational networks from corporate, monitor EDI and carrier portals for account takeover, keep immutable backups with tested restores and verify carrier payment changes out of band.

Clinics, Dealerships, Agencies and Local Firms

Around the plants sit practices feeding Houston Methodist Baytown Hospital, dealerships along the freeway frontage, insurance agencies, title offices and CPA firms. Each carries a regime attackers exploit: HIPAA for clinics and their billing partners, the FTC Safeguards Rule for dealerships and financial offices and PCI DSS for card-present retail. We implement PAM, MFA, email authentication and the written program each one requires.

Baytown FAQ

Common questions about cybersecurity services in Baytown, TX.

Can you monitor our Baytown plant-adjacent business without touching the process network?

+
Yes, and that boundary is the first thing we document. SOC monitoring, endpoint detection, PAM and email security run on the business side: office workstations, servers, Microsoft 365 and the industrial DMZ where historian data is published. Process control stays behind its own firewall zones along IEC 62443 lines. Vendor access into engineering systems is brokered and recorded rather than granted through standing VPN accounts, and every change is scheduled around unit operations.

How do you keep contractor accounts from becoming a breach after a turnaround?

+
By attaching an end date to every account before the event starts. We agree on role-based access profiles for each contractor firm, provision in batches, enforce MFA, watch for unusual sign-ins while the crew is on site and remove accounts, mailboxes, tokens and mobile enrollments on demobilization. You get a report of who had access to what and when it ended, which is exactly what an auditor or an insurer asks for.

What happens to our security coverage during a hurricane or a bay surge event?

+
Baytown is bordered by Galveston Bay on two sides, so we plan for the building being unreachable. Monitoring and response do not depend on your office being up, critical workloads replicate offsite, backups are immutable and verified with real test restores, and cellular failover keeps essential sites reporting. Attackers watch for disaster-recovery chaos, so the SOC stays on your tenant and endpoints throughout, and after-hours emergency response covers incidents that surface once the roads reopen.
