Rising to the challenges of protecting critical infrastructure

Protecting the transmission and distribution aspects of the power grid not only in North America, but globally, is a major security concern.

In North America, NERC, the North American Electric Reliability Corporation developed a standard by which companies must comply in order to provide physical security at the substation. The result is NERC CIP 014-2.

The Digitus Access Control Solution has been deployed as a key part of the overall solution to assist in dealing with securing the most mission critical controls, helping the utility companies to meet their compliance objectives.

Additionally, Digitus’ DAS-SQL Management platform allows organizations to monitor and report on all activity related to the access, or attempted access, of critical controls.
