Cyber Wiki

Welcome to the Cyber Security for Electric Power Generation CyberWiki

Welcome to the main page of the Electric Power Research Institute's CyberWiki, a wiki-style hub for cyber security research at EPRI, with a focus on operational technology in power generation. CyberWiki was built using the MediaWiki engine to be an extensible and dynamic educational and knowledge dissemination tool. It supplements the published content that is accessible through the EPRI website, or through each program's cockpit, by providing a flexible, web-based content delivery solution for projects that can benefit from the ability to easily update and add content as a project progresses. EPRI members can log in to access additional content through the EPRI Cyber Security for Generation Assets homepage.

Overview

EPRI’s Cyber Security for Generation Assets Program (P209) performed research and development to improve the security, safety, and resiliency of power generation facilities. Cyber attackers target the critical infrastructure that the public relies on for society to function. Proactive defenses are needed to ensure a reliable and resilient power supply for national security across the globe. Without secure energy, public health and welfare are threatened, and economies cannot function. Energy is uniquely vital because it enables all other critical infrastructure sectors, such as healthcare, transportation, food and agriculture, and others.

It is also crucial for power generation companies" business models and regulatory compliance. Advances in control, digital communication, and computational technology fundamentally changes the security postures and regulation. The objective of the Cyber Security for Generation Assets program (P209) is to provide practical applied tools and long-term technology research for operational technology (OT) systems and integrated information technology (IT) use cases (IT/OT). This 2050 vision informs long-term R&D needs for continued energy security.
