3.1 NERC COMPLIANCE
The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) created a set of standards for the protection of critical
infrastructure. These are known as the CIP standards (Critical Infrastructure Protection). These were introduced to
ensure the protection of 'Critical Cyber Assets', which control or have an influence on the reliability of North
America’s electricity generation and distribution systems.
These standards have been compulsory in the USA for several years now. Compliance auditing started in June
2007, and utilities face extremely heavy fines for non-compliance.
