NERC-CIP FAQs

What is NERC-CIP?

NERC-CIP standards and regulations were developed to ensure the security and reliability of Bulk Power Systems (BES). The CIP standards provide a cybersecurity framework for identifying and securing critical assets that impact the supply of electricity in the United States, several provinces in Canada, and one state in Mexico.

What are NERC-CIP Requirements?

The fundamental requirements utilities must follow under NERC-CIP are to identify critical assets, create control mechanisms, enforce logical and physical security of their systems, and recover any affected assets following a cybersecurity incident.

Who Does NERC-CIP Impact?

These standards require North American critical infrastructure entities, including owners, operators, and users of any part of the electric power industry to adhere to a baseline set of cybersecurity measures.

How is NERC-CIP Enforced?

The enforcement of NERC-CIP standards involves audits, assessments, and compliance reviews conducted by NERC’s compliance monitoring and enforcement program. Failure to comply with these standards may result in monetary fines, sanctions, or other actions.
