Rooted Public Utilities and SCADA IT Solutions

For public utilities, keeping SCADA systems running and customer data secure is vital to serving your community, but managing that with a small team can feel like a heavy lift. Rooted Technology Solutions gets the pressure local utilities face—with nearly 20 years supporting Alabama and Florida utilities, we bring tailored IT solutions to keep your operations steady, your data protected, and your systems ready for anything, so you can focus on delivering essential services without tech holding you back.

Industry Focus:

• We get how crucial it is to keep services flowing—your community relies on it, and a glitch can turn into a big headache when staff is stretched thin.
• You need SCADA systems like AVEVA, Siemens, or Rockwell Automation up and reliable to monitor and control infrastructure, but tight budgets make disruptions a worry.
• Cyber risks are growing, with a 70% surge in attacks on utilities in 2024, including 40% more ransomware targeting small systems that could halt service.
• We set up secure workstations and SCADA-ready firewalls, drawing on experience with VTScada, Wonderware, RVS, UMS, and Emerson’s Zedi and DeltaV, keeping your operations solid and data safe.
• We offer secure email with Microsoft 365 and vulnerability scanning to spot risks, working alongside your integrators and engineers to keep systems efficient and prepared.
• Our backup solutions and continuity plans reduce disruption impacts, easing stress so you can focus on serving your community, not wrestling with tech.

An MSP brings secure infrastructure, proactive monitoring, and practical support tailored to small utilities—we don’t house servers or your data, partnering instead with SOC 2 compliant vendors for top-tier security standards. With nearly 20 years of experience, we secure SCADA systems like Siemens WinCC or FactoryTalk, set up firewalls, configure email protection, run vulnerability scans, and provide backups to keep critical operations going during disruptions—all with an understanding of utility demands.
