ABOUT THE CONFERENCE


This innovative industry forum offers an immersive information experience for every player in the smart grid and cyber security communities -- individuals, corporations, academia, regulatory organizations, federal agencies, state governments and non-government organizations.

The conference, led by an influential group of industry thought leaders, is designed to confront the challenges that face developers of the electric grid infrastructure of the future, to ensure resilience in the face of attacks, existing and unknown.

Prevention is the focus of the information exchange. Recovery and response, while important components of any cyber security strategic plan, are addressed tangentially.

More than a series of presentations, the Smart Grid Cyber Security Summit is an immersive informational experience. Yes, you will hear presentations from security and smart grid experts. Yes, you will listen to insightful dialogue from panels and round-tables moderated by knowledgeable media and analysts.

What you will also get when you attend is in-depth material, in both hard-copy and soft-copy formats, to support many elements of securing the smart grid; networking functions with like-minded colleagues in close-knit settings that encourage peer-group exchange.

You’ll gain from a whole host of on-site information, post-show information access that you can share with your company, including Video files of speakers and panel sessions, to special privileges on access to detailed reports, newsletters, additional conferences and more. We encourage you to attend, and contribute to the growing community of stakeholders at work to develop and secure the nation’s advanced energy infrastructure.

Issues that will be discussed:

Risk Assessment Process and Approaches
Early Detection Tools: Honeypots and Firepots
Public Policy: Weighing the Benefits of Energy Demand Management with Consumer Privacy Security of the Smart Meter Production Supply Chain

Key Findings From the Cyber Security Working Group (SGIP–CSWG)
Attacker's Perspective & Attack Scenarios
Defense Strategies
Identifying Smart Grid Resources that need to be Protected

Industry Research findings and more.

Because the Smart Grid includes systems from the IT, telecommunications, and energy sectors, the Smart Grid Cyber Security Summit is applicable to professionals involved in all three sectors as they interact in the Smart Grid.
