GridEx VI Lessons Learned Report Released

On April 7, 2022, NERC issued a media release regarding NERC and the Electricity Information Sharing and Analysis Center’s (E-ISAC) sixth security exercise, GridEx VI, which was held in November 2021.

Communications, collaboration, and coordination are among many policy recommendations highlighted in the GridEx VI Lessons Learned Report as being key to industry’​s success during a severe security event. ​

Participants from across North America — including industry, and U.S. and Canadian government partners — took part in the two-day exercise, which tested the operational and policy measures that would be needed to restore the grid following a severe cyber and physical attack.
