NERC CIP

Forescout Streamlines NERC CIP Compliance

The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) plan is designed to secure the assets required for operating North America’s bulk electric system (BES). But compliance with these requirements can be a challenge as organizations often do not have complete visibility into the devices that are on their Operational Technology (OT) networks – or have information on the accuracy of configured devices.
