The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) plan is a set of evolving regulatory standards adopted in 2006 aimed at regulating, enforcing, and monitoring the security of the Bulk Electric System (BES) in North America. NERC is certified by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) as the body that establishes and enforces these reliability standards.
The NERC CIP compliance standards include many of the same common cybersecurity practices as other frameworks, such as NIST CSF or IEC 62443. However, they are more prescriptive and are enforceable by fines for non-compliance on the BES operators which are subject to them.
Our solution helps you implement eleven of the CIP requirements.
