Geothermal Sector Cybersecurity Vulnerability Assessment - Presentation

As geothermal resource contributions to the energy sector grow, cybersecurity will be increasingly important to ensure resilient, reliable, and secure clean energy for years to come. An overview of the cybersecurity vulnerability assessment project was developed and presented at the 2020 Geothermal Rising Annual Meeting. The data collection methods are discussed along with highlights of 8 possible vulnerabilities to consider with a deeper dive into one with some potential to be unique to the geothermal sector.
