Only 7 Months to First NERC CIP Compliance Deadline

December 1. Can you believe it is only 7 months until Balancing Authorities and Transmission Operators who were required to self-certify to NERC 1200 will need to be compliant with 13 NERC CIP requirements? (hat tip: Ron Blume of Dyonyx).

Some of the 30 June 2008 requirements are:

    • Test procedures for significant patches and upgrades. This is not only the procedure document, but actual implementation and documentation of test results.
    • Incident Response and Recovery Plans
    • Cyber Security Training and Personal Risk Assessments completed as well as access lists for physical and logical access.
    • Cyber Security Policy implemented and Exceptions documented
  • I remember seeing the schedule originally and being disappointed, but many asset owners will be scrambling to make this first deadline.
