Secure your utility infrastructure with sovereign, resilient connectivity

As cyber threats and disruptions rise, utility infrastructure faces growing risks. The Secure
Swiss Utility Network (SSUN)
, powered by
Anapaya and built on SCION technology,
delivers sovereign, always-on connectivity. It ensures secure data routing, full path control,
and instant failover — keeping critical utility operations protected and
always running.

Is your utility infrastructure prepared for
growing cyber and operational risks?

Utility infrastructure faces constant exposure to cyberattacks, operational disruptions, and data vulnerabilities. Power generation, grid operations, IoT devices, and remote telemetry all demand continuous connectivity. But the traditional Internet can no longer guarantee the reliability and security critical utility systems need.

Exposure to cyber threats

Public Internet reliance exposes critical utility systems to cyberattacks and service disruptions. SSUN removes this risk with SCION-based routing. 

warning

Lack of data sovereignty 

Routing sensitive data through foreign infrastructure raises compliance risks. SSUN keeps all data paths within Switzerland for full sovereignty. 

warning

Network downtime 

Conventional networks lack fast failovers. SSUN’s SCION-based routing ensures real-time resilience for mission-critical systems. 

Redefining connectivity for utility networks

SSUN is a SCION-powered 
network built for Switzerland’s 
utility sector. Combining 
public internet accessibility 
with private network control.

Voices from the Secure Swiss Utility Network

 

Leading voices from Switzerland’s energy sector — Markus Riner, Head of IT and Digitalization at the Association of Swiss Electricity Companies, Manuel Dietrich, CTO of Axpo Systems, and Stephan Benz, CEO of Litecom — share their perspectives. Representing the governing bodies of the Secure Swiss Utility Network (SSUN), they introduce a new secure and sovereign platform for Switzerland’s utility providers, water suppliers, and energy companies.

The Secure Swiss Utility Network for Critical Infrastructure

The Secure Swiss Utility Network (SSUN) is a sovereign, SCION-based communication infrastructure built for Swiss utilities, developed in partnership with the Association of Swiss Electricity Companies (VSE).
