LTS Secure SOC BOX: NERC CIP Cyber Security Compliance Management

In order to establish reliability & security standards for Bulk Electric System (BES), certain guidelines must be followed by companies in the power sector, so that they can comply with the North American Electric Reliability Corporation Critical Infrastructure Protection (NERC CIP) standards.

These reliability standards address security requirements like:-

  • Security Management
  • Information Protection
  • Risk-Based Assessment
  • Configuration Change Management
  • Vulnerability Assessment
  • Incident Response & Investigation
  • Remote Access
  • Perimeter & Physical Security

With the introduction of v5 of NERC CIP, all BES facilities have now come in scope with at least one of the requirement laid out by NERC CIP. Now, in order to determine their compliance requirements, providers are required to evaluate their BES to identify systems as high, low or medium impact.

LTS Secure SOC BOX delivers essential security capabilities that help you streamline BES infrastructure assessment & compliance.

    • Provides continuous capture and real-time monitoring of a broad range of data, including: events, asset data, configuration data, vulnerability data and network traffic.
    • HIDS monitors systems with highly sensitive data to ensure data integrity, availability and confidentiality.
    • NIDS detects malicious traffic on your on-premises infrastructure.
    • File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) alerts on changes to critical files which could signal a compromised system.
    • Event correlation links disparate events to alert you of attacks in progress, such as unauthorized access followed by privilege escalation followed by communication with C&C servers.
    • SOC BOX identifies the most significant threats targeting your network with timely, relevant threat intelligence that provides every detail you need in the alarm: what’s being attacked, who is the attacker, what is their objective, and how to respond.

    • Group assets quickly based on range of criteria including hardware type (e.g., servers and firewalls), software (mission-critical apps) or data type (e.g., sensitive information).
    • Unified event correlation connects critical, yet related events across systems such as a password change followed by exfiltration of data from the same device.
    • Built-in network flow analysis monitors on-premises network traffic and protocols to identify anomalous activity and policy violations.
    • Event correlation rules provide the situational awareness needed to identify potential data exfiltration.
    • Integrated threat intelligence provides every detail you need in the alarm: what’s being attacked, who is the attacker, what is their objective, and how to respond.
    • Flexible data search and analytics to create custom views and to report quickly.
