Book Description
sectors-such as public health, energy, water, and transportation-rely on computerized information and systems to provide services to the public. To fulfill the requirement for a comprehensive plan, including cyber aspects, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued a national plan in June 2006 for the sectors to use as a road map to enhance the protection of critical infrastructure. Lead federal agencies, referred to as sector-specific agencies, are responsible for coordinating critical infrastructure protection efforts, such as the development of plans that are specific to each sector. In this context, GAO was asked to determine if these sector-specific plans address key aspects of cyber security, including cyber assets, key vulnerabilities, vulnerability reduction efforts, and recovery plans. To accomplish this, GAO analyzed each sector-specific plan against criteria that were developed on the basis of DHS guidance.

Electricity Grid Modernization
Author: David A. Powner
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 1437944965
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
The electric industry is increasingly incorporating IT systems into its operations to improve reliability and efficiency. If these efforts are not implemented securely, the electric grid could become more vulnerable to attacks and loss of services. To address this concern, the NIST and FERC were given responsibility for coordinating the development and adoption of smart grid guidelines and standards. This report: (1) assesses the extent to which NIST has developed smart grid cybersecurity guidelines; (2) evaluates FERC¿s approach for adopting and monitoring smart grid cybersecurity and other standards; and (3) identifies challenges associated with smart grid cybersecurity. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand report.

Critical Infrastructure Protection
Author: Stephen L. Caldwell
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 1437931839
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
According to the Dept. of Homeland Security (DHS), there are thousands of facilities in the U.S. that if destroyed by a disaster could cause casualties, econ. losses, or disruptions to national security. DHS issued the Nat. Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP) in June 2006 to provide the approach for integrating the nation's critical infrastructure and key resources. This report studied DHS's Jan. 2009 revisions to the NIPP in light of a debate over whether DHS has emphasized protection rather than resilience. The report discusses: (1) how the 2009 NIPP changed compared to the 2006 NIPP; and (2) how DHS addressed resiliency as part of their planning efforts. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find report.
