Veracity Industrial Networks Releases New Paper on ICS Cybersecurity
Veracity advisor and former regulator Earl Shockley examines the state of Power Grid Cybersecurity
(firmenpresse) - ALISO VIEJO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/12/17 -- Veracity Industrial Networks, an award-winning developer of Industrial SDN-based technology for operational networks, today announced that the company has released a new white paper focusing on the state of industrial cybersecurity, specifically in the energy sector.
The paper, titled "Overcoming Cybersecurity Challenges in Industrial Control Systems", was developed by Earl Shockley, a Veracity advisor and former regulator and senior executive with the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC).
"We asked Earl to take a look at the state of readiness for the North American power grid," said Paul Myer, Veracity CEO. "We were surprised at the high level of violations of NERC's security standards that address Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP)."
The paper details not only the state of non-compliance of NERC's CIP standards, but details some of the options for emerging technologies that can assist in compliance. Failure to comply with the standards presents potentially costly risks for companies involved in the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity.
