Utility engineers deal with the same OT constraints as other industrial operators, including decades-long device lifetimes, safety cases and annual patching windows. For electric utilities, NERC CIP adds approval requirements to every change. Smart grid and metering systems also depend on more cryptography than traditional SCADA systems.
The overview covers the utility-specific regulatory picture for electric, gas and water operators. In the intensive, you work NERC CIP, smart grid and OT constraints into a sequenced migration plan. We teach the intensive from the OT and Critical Infrastructure Extension of the Applied Quantum PQC Migration Framework. If you run industrial systems outside the regulated utility sector, OT & Critical Infrastructure is the closer match.
