In the run up to the conference, SMi Group was delighted to interview conference chairman Stephen Daniels, Strategic Business Advisor, Cyber Security, CGI IT UK Limited.

Here is a snapshot of the pre-conference interview with Stephen:

“SMi: What would you say are the main issues surrounding standardisations and compliance within smart grids?
S.D.: ‘’One of the main problems for smart grids as in industry is that cyber security is extremely dynamic. This means we won’t know all the problems, no matter how well we have done our risk assessments, it won’t be exactly right. Utility companies should work together to help make each other secure smart grids to an appropriate level. Unless we all work together, you are only ever as strong as your weakest link…’’

The interview will cover Daniels opinion on smart grid cyber security innovations, issues, risks and much more. To download the full interview please visit the downloads tab at www.smartgridcybersecurity.co.uk

As well as supplying attendees with the latest information on smart grid cyber security, the 2016 event will provide the opportunity to take part in a full day post-conference workshop entitled ‘Making Information Security Work for Your Organisation’. This post-conference workshop will explore the challenges and solutions to aligning the information security management system with the business objectives and maximising the return on security investment (ROSI). The session will provide hints and tips to secure long-term commitment from the business at all levels.
