NERC CIP-002-3 – Critical Cyber Asset Identification For NERC CIP
September 3, 2010 | Leave a Comment
NERC CIP-002 requirements provide a framework for the identification and documentation of Critical Assets (those assets if compromised, degraded, misused, interrupted, etc.) can affect the performance of the Bulk Electric System (BES). The Bulk Electric System is the system whereby power is generated and transmitted throughout North America across many regional and local utilities. The protection of the BES requires that a single entity (utility) must have adequate controls and protections on critical assets and cyber assets to prevent and isolate adverse events from the BES. Identification (CIP-002) and Protection (CIP-003 to CIP-009) are the keys to the health of the BES from the CIP viewpoint with each utility implementing controls to ensure the security and integrity of their Critical Assets (CA) and Critical Cyber Assets (CCA).
