Watch this on-demand webcast with Industrial Defender and special guest Patrick Miller as we discussed the latest directive from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to update the NERC-CIP standards. This directive mandates that high- and medium-impact bulk electric system facilities maintain visibility over communications between networked devices and implement internal network security monitoring (INSM). During the webcast, we provided an overview of the current state around the new requirements, what you should anticipate, and why it is crucial to get started now.
