Security Guideline Effectiveness Survey: Risk Assessments and Voluntary Physical Security Protection Best Practices |
On January 19, 2021, FERC accepted the NERC proposed approach for evaluating Reliability Guidelines. This evaluation process takes place under the leadership of the Reliability and Security Technical Committee (RSTC) and includes:
- Industry survey on effectiveness of Reliability and Security Guidelines.
- Triennial review with a recommendation to NERC on the effectiveness of a Reliability or Security Guideline and/or whether risks warrant additional measures.
- NERC’s determination whether additional action might be appropriate to address potential risks to reliability in light of the RSTC’s recommendation and all other data within NERC’s possession pertaining to the relevant issue.
