The North American Electric Reliability Council (NERC) CIP Security Standard was designed to help organizations protect their critical cyber assets. This includes bulk electric system assets, as well as other essential information systems. Compliance with security standards, such as those prescribed in the NERC CIP-002 through CIP-009 can be challenging for any organization.

Global Training Solutions Inc. has announced the availability of the NERC CIP Information Security E-Learning Series, an interactive, self-paced fully customized training program that helps organizations comply with CIP requirements.
