Aramco and Enex join Copec in rejecting inclusion in Chile's critical infrastructure cybersecurity list
Esmax Distribución (Aramco's operator) and Empresa Nacional de Energía Enex (Shell's licensee) are seeking to overturn their inclusion in the list of Operators of Vital Importance (OIV) published in July by Chile's National Cybersecurity Agency (ANCI), joining appeals by Copec and Grupo Luksic mining companies. They argue that fuel distribution does not depend exclusively on their computer networks, since they can operate with manual procedures, and that the designation imposes regulatory burdens and fines of up to 40,000 UTM (about US$3.1 million).
