, catastrophic events, such as natural disasters or acts of war or terrorism, usage errors by our employees or other personnel and other events unforeseen or generally beyond our control. Damage or interruption to information technology systems could result in significant costs and may lead to significant liability, loss of critical data, reputational damage and disruptions to services or operations.

Threats to information technology systems associated with cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents or attacks continue to grow. Cyber incidents, including deliberate attacks, have increased in frequency globally, with energy-related assets particularly at risk. Due to the critical nature of these assets, any such attack on energy infrastructure could result in widespread service disruptions and challenges in maintaining public trust. The U.S. government has issued public warnings that specifically indicate energy assets could be targets of cybersecurity threats. Our technologies and systems, networks, and those of our customers, affiliates, vendors and other business partners, may become the target of cyberattacks or information security breaches that could result in the unauthorized access, release, gathering, monitoring, corruption, misuse or destruction of proprietary, personal and other information, or other disruption of business operations. Any such event could lead to significant liability, loss of critical data, reputational damage and disruptions to our services or operations.

While we have implemented and maintain commercially reasonable security measures and safeguards, such security measures and safeguards may not be sufficient to protect against an attack. Attackers are increasingly using advances in technologies, such as artificial intelligence and encryption bypasses that may evade our efforts. Emerging artificial intelligence technologies may improve or expand the capabilities of malicious third parties in a way we cannot predict at this time, including being used to develop new hacking tools, exploit vulnerabilities, obscure malicious activities and increase the difficulty detecting threats. Moreover, some of our networks and systems are managed by third-party service providers and are not under our direct control. We regularly enter into transactions with third parties, some of whom may have less sophisticated electronic systems or networks and may be more vulnerable to cyberattacks. Our reliance on these third parties means that any vulnerability in their systems could propagate to our own systems, increasing our risk exposure despite our internal controls.

In addition, certain cyber incidents, such as surveillance, ransomware, deepfake-based social engineering attacks and credential stuffing, may remain undetected for some period of time, and cyber incidents and attacks are continually evolving and unpredictable. As cyber incidents and attacks continue to evolve, we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to cybersecurity incidents.
