G-Audit: Substation Security Management and Compliance Automation

Substations play a pivotal role as part of the nation’s critical infrastructure. Securing grids and substations from cyber threats and attacks requires a collaborative effort from multiple stakeholders.

Electric Utilities need efficient and effective strategies for the cyber defense of substations. Implementing security controls that adhere to and comply with regulatory requirements helps enhance substation security and align with national cybersecurity missions to secure critical infrastructure.

Substation audits and assessments on an on-going basis can provide timely insights. However, establishing, tracking, and monitoring multiple substation cybersecurity initiatives and ensuring regulatory compliance can be a daunting task.

Cybersecurity audits and assessments are critical to ensuring the efficacy of substation cybersecurity.

G-Asset provides a single pane of glass by collecting substation security information from disparate sources and presenting it to the users as a single source of truth. This allows multiple stakeholders to manage compliance requirements collaboratively.

G-Asset facilitates and automates the processes of assessing the vulnerabilities related to substation assets and the level of compliance of assets to industry standards.
