As we continue to build out our modern electric generation, transmission, and delivery infrastructure, we continue to learn more about what it takes to address the security challenges that come with it. In the earliest days of the Smart Grid, we often made security decisions based on educated guesses combined with limited experience.

Panelists:
-- Rohit Khera, Lead Cybersecurity Architect, S&C Electric Company
-- Craig Rosen, Director, Technology Risk & Strategy, Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E)
-- Charles (Chuck) Speicher, Managing Principal, Secure System Center Practice, McAfee
-- Chris Villarreal, Regulatory Analyst, California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC)

While we still have a long way to go before we can state we fully understand the challenges, time has granted us a bit more wisdom. Hopefully, this sets us on a path that helps us focus on security practices and technologies that deliver maximum value for the resources applied.
