Create an environment for a separate instance of Scream Utility [our Energy Data Platform] and EZGB [our new Green Button Data download solution] in order to prepare an environment to Penetration Testing Make. Hire a third party to perform a thorough Network and Web Application security assessment and penetration testing for Scream Utility and EZGB to assess the security of Screaming Power’s key platform/applications. Then, perform the additional required infrastructure changes based upon the third party’s assessment and testing.

Create a self-serve quick setup for our Scream Utility SaaS solution such that a new customer can get up and running with a customized mobile app and sample data in about an hour with online tools to set up and monitor self-serve integration for billing and metering data.
In collaboration with our utility partners, we have developed a polished, hosted utility mobile app and web access solution. With this project, we prepare to mass-market our solution as a true Software as a Service (SaaS) solution requiring minimal professional services from our company to roll-out an implementation. This project advances our product goals to minimize overall cost and maximize utility self-management of our solution.

Extend our Digital Energy Data platform to integrate with Data Custodians as an Authorized Third Party through the Energy Services Provider Interface (ESPI), i.e., Green Button format. Provide the ability to retrieve historical and ongoing energy data from multiple Data Custodians. Demonstrate the potential of multi-Utility integration using test data in Green Button format. Store the energy data retrieved from these processes in our digital energy data platform and demonstrate the ability to present/validate the data through a web browser and mobile (iOS/Android) app. Build related administrative capability to manage/monitor the ESPI integration processes on an ongoing basis.

Make some known required security enhancements to our Energy Data Platform and hire a third party to perform a thorough security assessment and penetration testing to assess the security of Screaming Power’s platform/applications. Then, perform the additional required infrastructure changes based upon the third party’s assessment and testing.

The purpose of this CanExport SMEs agreement is to support small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for activities related to export market development that are part of an export business case for a specific target market, particularly where activities are targeting departmental priority markets and sectors.

Extend our Energy Data Platform to support an Energy Service Provider Interface (ESPI) for Green Button (GB), which is a new requirement for our existing utility customers in Ontario and increase our competitiveness in markets that support or plan to support GB (Nova Scotia, Alberta and the US).

Translate a complex mobile app with intertwined components built on a foundation that is 7 years old to create a separate component-based architecture that can be easily embedded on a web portal or used in a mobile app leveraging one code base.

Resolve a Utility Energy data security flow challenge when working with clients with strong policies on data privacy. Have private and personal data flow into our solutions and to end users, accommodate new data security regulations, and implement new strategies for data encryption. The project will determine new methods / procedures that will allow a Utility to inject personal and private data into the App and Cloud infrastructure data flows without Screaming Power having access to personal data in plaintext form on our Canadian servers.

We require a recent grad in Software Engineering to start in a client support/testing role for our SaaS energy platform, which will lead to software development on both our mobile front-end and back-end cloud solution (anticipated to be mainly front-end development). The goal is to educate the recent graduate on our customers, our SaaS product and the underlying tools to support clients prior to moving him to a development role.
