The whitepaper "Navigating the 2025 NERC CIP Updates & INSM Requirements" outlines key changes to NERC CIP standards affecting electric utilities. New mandates target low-impact asset protection (CIP-003-9), enhanced perimeter controls and universal MFA (CIP-005-7), configuration and patch integrity (CIP-010-4), secure supply chain practices (CIP-013-2), and mandatory internal network monitoring (CIP-015-1).

It emphasizes phased implementation, cross-functional partnerships, and readiness for evolving cybersecurity risks.
