While physical threats to the U.S. power grid and pipelines have long worried policymakers, cyber threats to the computer systems that operate this critical infrastructure are an increasing concern. Cybersecurity risks against the power and pipeline sectors are similar, as both use similar control systems, and there appears to be a broad consensus that cyber threats to this infrastructure are on the rise. Furthermore, with ever-greater physical interdependency between electricity generators and the natural gas pipelines that supply their fuel, many in Congress recognize that grid and pipeline cybersecurity are intertwined. In 2015, the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (the FAST Act) provided the Secretary of Energy with new authority to protect or restore the power grid during a grid security emergency, including a cyber incident. Congress is considering additional legislation to fund and expand the Department of Energy’s cybersecurity programs.

A secure and resilient power grid is vital to national security and a strong and vibrant economy. Much of the current electric grid was designed and built using technologies and organizational principles developed decades ago to serve vertically integrated markets, with large-scale generation sources remotely located from consumers, a one-way flow of power, and centralized control schemes with minimal feedback. A modern grid must be flexible to integrate distributed energy resources, accommodate the two-way flow of electricity and information for better power management, and provide strong protection against physical and cyber risks.

As the electric grid evolves, it is an increasingly attractive target for cyberattacks. Today, cyber incidents have the potential to disrupt the grid, damage highly specialized equipment, and threaten human health and safety. Protecting the Nation’s grid and other critical energy infrastructure from cyberattacks is a national priority outlined in the National Cyber Strategy.1
