EP46 – Byron Martin & Dan Morgan of Teknologize Talk IT & Cybersecurity For Wind Farms

February 03, 2021

The IT and cybersecurity experts from Teknologize sat down with us to discuss the needs of both modern and aging wind farms. Byron Martin, CEO and Daniel Morgan, CTO, discussed the major problem of upgrading older software systems to modern standards and the myriad problems and challenges involved.

With a projected 20-year lifespan, a wind site will see massive changes in technology and infrastructure needs over that span of time and will need to see their systems upgraded numerous times. Cybersecurity is also a major concern with the recent Solarwinds breech, and Byron and Dan share their insights on what companies need to implement going forward.
