Sovereign AI for infrastructure the country cannot afford to lose.
Electricity, gas and liquid-fuel operators run assets the nation depends on, under some of the strictest security obligations in Australian law. The moment operational or market data is processed by a third-party model, it leaves the boundary your risk-management program is accountable for. BlackVault™ processes energy data entirely within your own environment and delivers the evidence your obligations demand.
Your regulation, named.
Critical infrastructure risk management
The Security of Critical Infrastructure Act designates electricity, gas and liquid-fuel assets as critical infrastructure. Part 2A requires a Critical Infrastructure Risk Management Program covering cyber hazards and — since the 2024 Enhanced Response and Prevention amendments — the business-critical data and secondary systems that store it, reviewed at least annually. BlackVault™ keeps AI processing inside that boundary and produces the evidence for your annual CIRMP review.
Energy-sector cyber maturity
AEMO’s Australian Energy Sector Cyber Security Framework is the maturity baseline market participants are assessed against, aligned to the SOCI obligations. BlackVault™ is deployed and documented to your target AESCSF maturity profile, with no offshore model dependency anywhere in the control path.
Baseline controls, uplifted
The CIRMP rules direct critical-infrastructure operators toward higher (Maturity Level 2) Essential Eight controls. BlackVault™ implements the Essential Eight on every deployment, with the maturity uplift path included in scope and evidenced each quarter.
Where sovereign AI earns its place on the network.
Begin with an assessment, not a deployment.
You do not need to commit to infrastructure to engage BlackVault™. A fixed-scope AI Readiness Assessment maps where your organisation is already exposed to public AI tools, identifies the highest-value network, market and back-office workflows, and sets out a sovereign roadmap against your SOCI and AESCSF obligations. Sovereign deployment and permanent operation follow when you are ready.
