Critical infrastructure industries are increasingly expanding into the digital and smart frontier, become more vulnerable to advanced and persistent cyberattacks. This research service examines emerging trends and business models in the US power industry — from generation to transmission and distribution — that will affect the cybersecurity market. It was developed based on a series of Frost & Sullivan-moderated online discussion boards with participants in the power, chemicals and petrochemicals, and oil and gas industries. The study examines the current state of cybersecurity preparedness, as well as best practices, unmet needs, and industry challenges.
