Cyber-informed engineering (CIE) has many possible applications in the energy sector and beyond. CESER and our partners are committed to providing regular opportunities for diverse audiences to learn more about the concepts, tools, case studies, and more to help you implement CIE in your field.
Quarterly “What is CIE” Webinar Series
Want to learn more about CIE? Join us for a quarterly “What is CIE?” webinar series, where we will share the key concepts behind CIE and dive deep into the CIE principles.
Next webinar: October 24, 11:30 am – 1:00 pm ET
2023 CIE Practitioner’s Workshop
View sessions from the virtual CIE Practitioner’s Workshop on September 6, 2023. Hosted by Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and funded by CESER, these sessions are geared toward engineers and other users interested in or already implementing CIE concepts in their work. You can view the full list of recordings here.
This session includes remarks from leaders in the field, including representatives from the Office of the National Cyber Director; U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency; INL; NREL; and CESER.
Fantasy CIE: Drafting A CIE Dream Team
This session addresses the types of practitioners that should be included in CIE processes, who should be considered as stakeholders, and how a variety of voices can be integrated to provide security insights through CIE process.
Making the Case for CIE: Getting Execs Onboard
This session looks at how teams interested in CIE can make the benefits clear to executives, and what messaging is needed to make the business case for CIE up the chain.
Engaging Cybersecurity In Engineering: Adding A Consequence-Based Perspective To Cybersecurity
This session explores how engineers can convey engineering consequence to a cyber team and how they play a part to inform a tailored, consequence-based approach to cybersecurity.
Much of the practice of CIE aligns with a robust human performance culture. This talk explains how to build and leverage human performance culture to aid in cybersecurity.
The ISA 62443 standard provides a holistic framework for security in automation and industrial control systems. It also has alignment with several CIE principles. This presentation addresses those points of alignment and how to incorporate CIE into 62443 practices.
Addressing Vulnerabilities Early: CIE for Research-Stage Technology
This session outlines how to identify high-impact consequences which could threaten a technology or system even at the research phase, and how we can ensure that technology licensees and adopters benefit from security thinking throughout the research life cycle.
This presentation explores the specific issues that engineering firms must address to successfully incorporate CIE principles into overall risk and liability assessments, including how to align secure-by-design concepts with a broader set of risk factors that asset owners and engineers should consider throughout the design, procurement, and construction processes.
CIE Implementation Guide Walkthrough and Q&A Session
Authors of the newly developed CIE Implementation Guide conducted a detailed walkthrough of its contents and took questions and feedback from the audience.
