Corporate Risk Solutions Produces Fully Abridged NERC CIP Compliance Guide Book

Lenexa, KS, March 01, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Corporate Risk Solutions, Inc. (CRSI), a wholly-owned subsidiary and premier security consulting firm of Corporate Enterprise Security, Inc., has produced a definitive NERC CIP Corporate Compliance Guide Book for their utility partners. This “Guide Book” was developed as the first ever, holistic, abridged “Go-To” source for all NERC CIP Compliance questions. It provides insight from FERC Order 706 that was used as the basis for the development of each of the CIP Standards, as well as references applicable NERC documents published for guidance, interpretation, compliance application, and/or Frequently Asked Questions attributable to each CIP Standard, requirement, and/or sub-requirement.

The “Guide Book” also provides enhanced information such as potential auditors’ questions, evidence of compliance, and even best practices or common problem areas. The “Guide Book” was developed using Version 3 of the CIP Standards, as well as guidance for CIP-002 Version 4 as currently approved by the NERC Board of Trustees, and is presented in a easy-to-use “lay flat,” full color, tabbed handbook format.

Michael W. Tibbs, Senior Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer of CRSI, explains, “The NERC CIP Compliance Guide Book benefits all members of the utility company. Those that will benefit most from the Guide are Subject Matter Experts, members of the Internal Compliance Team, Management and Senior Executives, and literally any employees dealing directly with NERC CIP on a daily or periodic basis.”

The first edition of the “Guide Book” will only be available for purchase by CRSI’s utility partners and will be available in early/mid-March 2012. CRSI has plans to distribute future version of the “Guide Book” in a web-based resource process with a subscription service keeping the information current on changes in the NERC CIP regulatory environment.
