ISACA: December Roundtable – Critical Infrastructure Discussion

Come hear a Critical Infrastructure talk about Malicious Insider Threat, Supply Chain, Physical Attack, and NERC CIP

This panel will explore the Midwest Reliability Organization process used to identify and rank reliability, cybersecurity, and physical security risks to the Bulk Power System (BPS), and its relevance to other sectors. Hear how this grassroots process evolved from the collective knowledge of many, and how it’s continuously enhanced by the MRO industry councils to refine risk descriptions, outline typical and worst-case scenarios, and discover high-level risk mitigations. Risks are normalized by MRO staff and its councils and presented on one heatmap in the final Regional Risk Assessment (RRA).  The panel will also explore the maturity and examples of the cyber and physical security standards used to ensure a reliable and secure power grid known as NERC CIP that have been in place for approximately 15 years now.
