Historically, NERC CIP compliance has been a manually intensive, complex process. This talk will share ideas on how to ease the process of patch and vulnerability management and outline how asset owners can automate asset inventory (identification of device part number, firmware version, vendor, model, serial number) in a passive way for all their substation assets, thus eliminating site visits and manual processes, while ensuring a more accurate inventory without the risk of data entry errors.[/vc_column_text][mk_divider style=”thin_solid”][vc_single_image image=”6237″ img_size=”medium”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1534181184133{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Brian Proctor
