Power Plant Cybersecurity & NERC CIP Compliance - How to Prepare, Plan & Respond

test alt tag

Specific topics covered will include:

  • The growing cybersecurity risks and specific points of vulnerability for the power industry

  • Considerations in implementing a comprehensive cybersecurity solution

  • How to identify threats and risks and gaps in control from internal and third parties and the proposed CIP 013-1 Reliability Standard

  • Best practices in cybersecurity incident handling and response management

  • Case study on how Fortress implementation at a major power producer is helping monitor threats and vulnerabilities in their supply chain and adhere to regulation.

In this informative webinar, Tony Turner and Eric Belardo from Fortress Information Security will discuss the new and changing profile of threats to this industry, and steps power plants and utilities can take to secure their IT and OT operations to monitor and safeguard their attack surface.

Below are some of the questions discussed during the webinar:

  • What is the most basic thing we can do to achieve NERC compliance and ensure actual security?

  • Do we need to worry about physical security when trying to achieve NERC compliance?

  • Does the scenario where a vendor has remote control/monitoring of a plant asset (such as a boiler) for diagnostic purposes pose significant security risks?

  • Do you expect cybersecurity issues to be compounded by the growing adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT)?

  • How long does it typically take to develop an engagement with Fortress, and how long does it take to get monitoring up and running?
