Vision
Secure Smart Grids are architected with standards.
To build a secure, resilient, mission-critical Smart Grid network, utilities require technology that is secure, reliable, and self-healing.
That’s why Grid Net has architected leading security protocols, standards and methodologies into its PolicyNet SmartGrid Network Management System™, SmartGrid Network Operating System™, and SmartGrid Agents, real-time, all-IP industry-leading software platforms for management and monitoring Smart Grid networks. It’s also why our smart metering technology contains robust, sophisticated meter security, secure data encryption, and secure data transport via secure 4G broadband communications networks. Moreover, we are committed to continuous standards-based innovation, to ensure that succeeding generations of our solutions will contain the latest security enhancements and improvements.
Grid Net’s approach to Smart Grid security is “multi-level/multi-layer” — to architect leading security into Smart Grid devices (smart meters and routers), into data encryption for both storage and transport, and into Grid Net’s software platforms. Our security architecture supports the cyber security principles of confidentiality, integrity, availability, identification, authentication, access control, non-repudiation, secure operations, and auditing/accounting.
