AGENDA EOP-005-2 – effective July 1, 2013 Reminder BES Definition Process Update CIP Version 4 Transition Guidance Update and Audit Approach for FERC Remand on NERC Guidance for CIP- 002-R3 Audit Approach for FERC Remand on NERC Guidance for CIP-006 R1.1 US Entities / Periodic Data Submittal (PDS) / 2013 WECC Actively Monitored List (WECC AML) webCDMS Single User Sign On

Phil O’Donnell Manager, Operations and Planning Audits EOP-005-2 Reminder April 18, 2013

EOP-005-2 REMINDER EOP-005-2 is effective July 1, 2013 R1 requires all TOP’s to have a Restoration Plan “Approved by the RC” on that date. The RC’s related restoration standard EOP-006 specifies what they must do for a review of the TOP plans and gives them 30 days to complete the review.

EOP-005-2 REMINDER As a reminder If TOP’s do not provide your restoration plans to the RC by June 1, 2013 it will be a challenge for you as a TOP to be compliant on July 1.  The compliance expectation is for all TOP’s to have an RC approved plan on July 1, 2013. If the TOP does not have an approved plan on July 1 due to late submittal of its plans for review to the RC it will be considered as non compliant for R1.

Agenda 142 FERC ¶ 61,204 Docket No. RD12-5-000 Remanding CIP-002-3 R3 Interpretation Impact on WECC CIP Audit Approach Update on NERC Transition Guidance for CIP-002-4

142 FERC ¶ 61,204 Docket No. RD12-5-000 Original interpretation was filed under CIP-002-3a R3. Although some language in the interpretation refers to CIP-002-4 R3 (e.g., Section 4, p. 2), Sections 6 & 13 clarify the interpretation also applies to CIP-002-4 R2 (FERC Order, 2013, pp. 4, 6) FERC agreed with NERC Q1 interpretation, but considered NERC Q2 interpretation to be faulty (FERC Order, 2013, Section 10, p. 5) However, the order remands entire NERC interpretation on CIP-002-4 R2 as the original interpretation was approved on one balloting (FERC Order, 2013, Footnote 12 , p. 5)

142 FERC ¶ 61,204 Docket No. RD12-5-000 Laptops were primarily cited as an example, "the proposed interpretation fails to consider that a computer (e.g., a laptop) used by utility staff or contractors to control the functions and operations of a Critical Asset is, during such usage, 'inherent to or necessary for the operation of a Critical Asset,' and thus falls within the scope of CIP-002-4, Requirement R2" (FERC Order, Section 13, pp. 5-6). “laptop computers connected to an EMS network through the Internet and used to supervise control, optimize, and manage generation and transmission systems would be ‘considered essential’” (FERC Order, 2013, Section 17, p. 7) In addition, FERC stated the NERC Q2 “interpretation and petition do not provide adequate justification for leaving unprotected cyber assets (e.g., laptop computers) essential to the operation of associated Critical Assets” (FERC Order, 2013, Section 18, p. 7)

Impact on WECC CIP Audit Approach [Q1] Minimal impact to WECC Audit Approach by FERC order on Q1 WECC Audit Approach considers the examples discussed in the Q1 interpretation: As illustrative, not prescriptive, and Provide a minimal list of Cyber Assets, associated with each Critical Asset identified pursuant to CIP-002-4 R1, that should be considered relative to CIP-002-4 R2, but Do not represent an exhaustive list of Cyber Assets that must be considered under CIP-002-4 R2

Impact on WECC CIP Audit Approach [Q2] Burden to demonstrate essentiality of Cyber Assets for operation of Critical Assets pursuant to CIP-002-4 R2 still lies on entity shoulders. Due diligence in light of the FERC order indicates entities should: Consider definition of essential (NERC, Identifying Critical Cyber Assets, Section C, pp. 7-8) in Critical Cyber Asset Identification [CCAID] methodology Apply definition to inventory of Cyber Assets associated with each Critical Asset identified and documented pursuant to R2 Include an evaluation of all laptops, smart phones, and any other Cyber Assets which may be configured for or are capable of, controlling generation or transmission systems and meets one or more of the qualifying characteristics cited above Document all evaluations and CCA/non-CCA status of the inventory of all Cyber Assets associated with each Critical Asset identified pursuant to CIP-002-4 R1

NERC CIP-002-4 Transition Guidance During today’s (April 18, 2013) FERC Sunshine Meeting, FERC proposed a NOPR that would require Registered Entities to maintain compliance efforts with CIP version 3 until CIP version 5 is Approved NERC has advised a period of discussion to consider the FERC action and develop a common approach to future compliance efforts across all regions More details in light of the FERC proposal and its impact relative to the WECC Audit Approach will be forthcoming at the June CIPUG in Portland See you there

Mick Neshem Senior Compliance Auditor, Cyber Security CIP-006 Interpretation Remand– Audit Implications April 18, 2013 WECC Webinar

CIP-006-1 R1.1 Requirement Processes to ensure and document that all Cyber Assets within an Electronic Security Perimeter (ESP) also reside within an identified Physical Security Perimeter. Where a completely enclosed (“six-wall”) border cannot be established, the Responsible Entity shall deploy and document alternative measures to control physical access to the Critical Cyber Assets.

CIP-006 R1.1 NERC Interpretation Response Summary (CIP-006-4) “… Since wiring is not included in the definition of “Cyber Asset,” Requirement R1.1 of CIP-006-1 does not apply to wiring.” E-7_Order_Remaning_CIP-006-4_2013.3.21.pdf

CIP-006 R1.1 FERC Remand- Summary “15. …We do not agree that the network cabling (i.e., wires) that gives a communication network its networking capability would be exempt from the CIP Reliability Standards…” E-7_Order_Remaning_CIP-006-4_2013.3.21.pdf

CIP-006-2 R1.1 NERC Existing Interpretation [Approved by FERC] 21 …” For Electronic Security Perimeter wiring external to a Physical Security Perimeter, the drafting team interprets the Requirement R1.1 as not limited to measures that are “physical in nature.” The alternative measures may be physical or logical, on the condition that they provide security equivalent or better to a completely enclosed (“six-wall”). Alternative physical control measures may include, but are not limited to, multiple physical access control layers within a non-public, controlled space. Alternative logical control measures may include, but are not limited to, data encryption and/or circuit monitoring to detect unauthorized access or physical tampering. E-7_Order_Remaning_CIP-006-4_2013.3.21.pdf

CIP-006 R1.1 FERC Remand- Summary “23. First, by its plain language, the existing interpretation clearly applies to Electronic Security Perimeter wiring. Second, NERC states in the petition supporting the existing Commission-approved interpretation that “the interpretation request [in Docket No. RM06-22-000] discusses connections between multiple Physical Security Perimeters that reside within a single Electronic Security Perimeter.” Description of “Extended” ESP – WECC Audit Staff E-7_Order_Remaning_CIP-006-4_2013.3.21.pdf

CIP-006 R1.1 Remand- Summary

No access point required at each connection point between extended ESPs if encryption or other appropriate controls exist

WECC Audit Approach Doesn’t change Require encryption or other appropriate controls to interconnect ESPs through multiple PSPs (Extended ESP concept) Discrete ESPs must have CIP-005 Access Points at each discrete ESP location. Cabling in between discrete ESPs is exempt from audit (encryption is always a good practice)
