In this first installment of a two-part conversation, host Joe Tromba sits down with Chris Holmquest, Senior Reliability and Security Advisor at SERC Reliability Corporation, to explore the evolving world of Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP). With more than four decades in the power industry, Chris shares his unique perspective on the transformation of technology, operations and security, from coal-fired power plants and control centers without personal computers (PCs) to today's complex cyber and physical security challenges. He also offers insights into SERC's Assist Team, the integration of cyber scenarios into operator training, and why CIP remains a cornerstone of grid reliability.
