With the current technological advancements, the cost of renewable energy technologies, like solar and wind power, as well as energy storage solutions, continues to decrease dramatically.

Secure remote access solutions like RealVNC Connect can play a major role in the shift towards a more sustainable future.

The Critical Role of Sustainability in Energy Management

What does it mean for the energy industry to truly be sustainable? It’s about achieving a balance between preserving ecological balance and catering for the world’s energy demands. Global warming and climate change are another reason why wasteful energy practices must become a thing of the past. Therefore, the energy sector can become an example of sustainability and efficiency.

Using RealVNC Connect for Enhanced Efficiency

Energy assets are often decentralized. Therefore, the need for reliable remote access is stronger than ever.

And not any remote access solution will do. The solution you choose needs to provide excellent data security, without compromising functionality.

RealVNC Connect provides excellent security, complying with a broad range of industry and government standards and regulations. At the same time, it’s a multiplatform solution, easy to deploy and use on any of your devices.

A Closer Look at RealVNC Connect’s Features

Let’s put a few of RealVNC Connect’s most important remote access for energy features.

256-bit AES encryption

Every connection is encrypted. Not even RealVNC can have access to your data, not now, not in the future. This ensures that, in a world in which catastrophic data breaches happen daily, your sensitive information is protected.

ISO27001 certification

With cybersecurity threats becoming more complex every day, there has never been a more stringent need for robust data protection. One term that’s frequently mentioned in these discussions is ISO27001 certification.

This serves as concrete proof of RealVNC being serious about safeguarding your data. We’re not satisfied with providing industry-leading remote access solutions; we’re equally committed to ensuring operational excellence, resilience, and security against cyberattacks.

This certification gives you the confidence that your data is in safe hands—a company that doesn’t just meet basic security requirements, but goes above and beyond to protect your information.

RealONE: RealVNC Connect and RPort, for comprehensive remote IT management

The RealONE package, a comprehensive combination of RealVNC Connect and RPort, enhances IT network administration by integrating advanced features such as device health monitoring, script scheduling, and remote system access. All of this, is to streamline and secure the management of the complex IT infrastructures in the energy sector.

The versatility and robustness of RealVNC’s solutions are evident in their support for a wide range of platforms. Extensive multiplatform compatibility ensures that energy industry professionals can effortlessly access and manage IT systems from virtually any device, for better reliability, performance, security, productivity, flexibility, and collaboration.

The solution offers the same high-security features such as two-factor authentication, AES encryption, and mechanisms to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. Additionally, the self-hosting options offered by RealONE empower organizations with full control over their data and systems, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected.

The Western Energy Case Study

In the previous article of this series, we discussed how RealVNC solutions help renewable energy providers. We also talked specifically about how Centurion Solar can now support solar energy customers, wherever they may be located.

This time, we’ll look at our customer Western Energy, a coal production company in Montana, USA, which faced challenges in providing timely IT support to its widely distributed office staff across multiple mining sites.

They were looking for an effective solution to manage IT issues remotely, so they could minimize downtime and maintain optimal production levels.

They implemented RealVNC Connect across both sites. As a result, IT problems are now quickly resolved remotely, and time spent traveling between sites can now be used elsewhere.

The IT team is also responsible for the systems controlling security; this includes electronic gates at the mine sites. Before using the software, any issue would require a technician on site. This is all in the past, as issues raised can be sorted from home by technicians.
