InfraShield, an expert critical infrastructure cybersecurity firm with deep specialization in securing nuclear energy facilities, is proud to announce it has joined the Texas Nuclear Alliance (TNA) as a member, underscoring the company’s commitment to protecting the next generation of nuclear power across both cyber and physical domains.
Momentum around nuclear power in Texas is accelerating. The recent Texas Nuclear Summit (TNS), held in Austin this past October, was the site of jam-packed conference rooms where the conversation shifted from oil to “electrons.” Attendance soared at the second annual TNS, as analysts, and executives rally around advanced reactor technologies—including smaller, next-generation designs that promise to be built faster and more affordably to keep pace with Texas’ booming economy and surging electricity demand from AI data centers.
“As Texas leans into a new era of nuclear innovation, every digital system that powers that growth has to be secure by design,” said Mark Rorabaugh, President of InfraShield. “From small modular reactors to advanced molten-salt designs, these plants are becoming more software-driven and interconnected. InfraShield is joining the Texas Nuclear Alliance because we believe Texas can lead the nation in proving that nuclear can not only deliver clean, always-on power at scale—but do it on a rock-solid foundation of cyber-physical resilience and trust.”
Enthusiasm for Texas’ nuclear sector is rising even as advanced reactors work through regulatory, financing, and deployment hurdles. While only a handful of smaller advanced units have been built globally so far, Texas leaders see an opportunity similar to the early days of the shale boom: to marry breakthrough nuclear technology with Texas’ entrepreneurial drive and turn it into real, steel-in-the-ground projects capable of satisfying surging demand. Ensuring those projects are secure, reliable, and compliant from day one is where InfraShield will focus its efforts.
“InfraShield’s deep technical expertise and dedication to safeguarding critical infrastructure play a vital role in advancing the safe development of nuclear energy,” said Reed Clay, President of the Texas Nuclear Alliance. “Texas is ready to embrace nuclear power for its tremendous benefits, and TNA is proud to partner with InfraShield, whose work will help unlock and guard the safe, reliable energy our state needs.”
“Texas is emerging as a driving force in the nation’s nuclear renaissance,” Rorabaugh said. “As advanced reactors and digital systems become more interconnected, security must evolve in lockstep. Our partnership with the Texas Nuclear Alliance reflects InfraShield’s commitment to ensuring that the next generation of nuclear innovation is built on a foundation of trust, resilience, and cyber-physical safety.”
