The August 2012 issue of The CIP Report highlights the significance of the challenges with securing the smart grid. First, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Research and Development (R&D), Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability, U.S. Department of Energy provides an overview of smart grid security. Then, the findings from the Workshop on Securing the Smart Grid: Best Practices in Supply Chain Security, Integrity, and Resilience, which include best practices in supply chain security and resilience that help to reduce cyber risks, are revealed. Also included are a report from Progress Energy and vignettes from different companies illustrating best practices in supply chain security, resilience, and integrity.
