Energy & Assets – Steve Greenham

Smartmetering Security Architecture

I was deployed for nine months to one of the Big Six Energy Suppliers as the Security Architect on their Smart Metering Programme, which will bring intelligent Electricity and Gas metering to six million customers by 2019. As the Smartmetering Security Architect I was responsible for the high-level Security Strategy and Architecture and ensuring that systems integrators met the functional and non-functional security requirements that I specified.

Protect the “Crown Jewels”

Organisations are realising that they have too much information to be able to protect all of it to the same extent. I led a team identifying and advising on the protection of a FTSE 250 Oil company’s most critical information assets, tracing their “crown jewels” through their lifecycle and recommending targeted security controls for the points at which they were most vulnerable.
