Control Systems Security Working Group (CSSWG)
Private Files
Control Systems are the “brains” of the control and monitoring of the
bulk electric system and other critical infrastructures, but they were
designed for functionality and performance, not security. Most Control
Systems assume an environment of complete and implicit trust. The CSSWG
is charged with working with other appropriate organizations to develop
economical procedures to apply security into existing systems; as well
as to look forward to have security built into newly designed or
delivered systems. In addition, the CSSWG looks at Control System
specific issues, such as patch installation and management, which cannot
be blindly adopted from traditional IT methodologies.
Objectives:
Work with NERC groups, other industry groups, vendors and government
to enhance their understanding of security issues within Control Systems
Work with utilities, vendors, consultants, and government organizations
including those with Control System test beds to identify and implement
appropriate security technology and guidelines, both for existing and
future implementations.
