Description
The Energy Department’s cybersecurity office will work with cloud service providers and the renewable energy industry this year to help delineate cyber protection requirements for the sector.
The work is being led out of Energy’s Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response (CESER). It comes amid growing concerns about hackers infiltrating U.S. critical infrastructure, including the electric grid.
