Abstract
This Energy Insights report studies recent developments in cybersecurity for
network automation and control systems. Topics covered include:
- How recent cost-cutting initiatives and new technologies implemented by utilities are creating additional cybersecurity problems
- Why the North American Electric Reliability Council's (NERC's) new cybersecurity standards, CIP 002-009, could create more headaches for utilities considering new technologies - such as IP-enabled supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA)
- What actions utilities can take to not only strengthen their cybersecurity but also develop a more cost-effective approach
"The biggest threat today to an energy delivery business' cybersecurity is not
necessarily a virus, worm, or terrorist - although these can be significant
threats. It is often the utility company itself." - Rick Nicholson, vice
president, Energy Insights
