Discussing Critical Infrastructure Risks, Trends and Strategies
Risks to energy sector enterprises continue to grow, with drones, terrorism and budgetary challenges looming. Compliance requirements are tightening as well, but as Everardo Trujillo, Manager of Information Security Engineering and Operations at Sempra Energy Utilities, says: “A lot of people say ‘compliance makes you secure,’ and it’s the other way around, really.”
In the July 21 webinar, Current Trends in the Protection of Energy Sector and Critical Infrastructure, Trujillo was joined by two of his critical infrastructure security peers: Karl Perman, Vice President of Services for EnergySec and former Director of Security for the North American Transmission Forum; and Josh Sandler, Manager of Security, Risk & Compliance for Duke Energy – CIP Program Management. Together, the panel of security leaders discussed major issues confronting energy sector enterprises, security trends and potential mitigation strategies.
