The Energy industry in the United States is relied upon by all Americans on a daily basis. It is a critical component of out national security and needs to be protected like one.
Ciphent is helping Energy and Utility companies secure their information assets from malicious insiders, fortify their cyber systems against attacks and meet and exceed new and existing compliance regulations.
For 2009, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has released new mandatory cyber security compliance initiatives to protect energy and utility companies, called CIP (Critical Infrastructure Protection). CIP was developed by the North American Energy Reliability Council (NERC). These new regulatory standards, CIP-002 - CIP-009 were designed to protect energy and utility companies with specific focus on cyber security.
Ciphent is well versed in these new compliance policies and has built out solutions sets for energy and utility companies to become compliant, quickly, easily and with minimal cost, by June 1st, 2009.
