Building an Effective Security Program for Distributed Energy Resources and Systems 1st Edition

Description

Build a critical and effective security program for DERs  This publication educates engineers on the design, implementation, and maintenance of a security program for distributed energy resources (DERs), smart grid, and industrial control systems. Building an Effective Security Program for Distributed Energy Resources and Systems provides a unified approach to establishing a critical security program for DER systems and Smart Grid applications. The methodology provided integrates systems security engineering principles, techniques, standards, and best practices.    The publication guides security professionals in learning the specific requirements of industrial control systems and real-time constrained applications. It also outlines the functions of the security program as well as the scope and differences between traditional IT system security requirements and those required for industrial control systems such as SCADA systems.  This book:  Addresses the cybersecurity needs for DERs and power grid as critical infrastructure   Explores the assessment and management of security risks and ethical concerns  Offers a full array of resources— cybersecurity concepts, frameworks, and emerging trends.   Security Professionals and Engineers can use Building an Effective Security Program as a reliable resource that’s dedicated to the essential topic of security for distributed energy resources and power grid. They will find standards, guidelines, and recommendations from standard organizations, such as ISO, IEC, NIST, IEEE, ENISA, ISA, ISACA, and ISF, conveniently included for reference within chapters.
