Abstract:
A computerized system for complying with critical infrastructure protection (“CIP”) standards concerning system configuration changes. The system can be used to automatically identify and track changes to computers on the network, improving system security and CIP compliance reporting. In certain embodiments, the system collects system information on servers and workstations using built-in commands. The configuration profiles of these computers/devices can be archived for audit purposes.

Claim (Index 1):
A computerized system for complying with certain critical infrastructure protection requirements, wherein the system comprises:\n a non-transitory computer-readable medium having a computer program code stored thereon; a database including one or more records that establishes baseline system configurations for a plurality of devices of a critical infrastructure organization; a processor in communication with the computer-readable memory configured to carry out instructions in accordance with the computer program code, wherein the computer program code, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform operations comprising: collecting, based one or more critical infrastructure protection (\u201cCIP\u201d) standards, system information for a plurality of devices on a communications network based on information needed to comply with the standards, based on one or more requirements in one or more of the following: CIP-003 R6, CIP-007 R1, CIP-007 R2, CIP-007 R3, CIP-007 R4, and CIP-007 R5, wherein the collecting step is performed by communicating with a plurality of devices over an electronic communications network to execute a plurality of command line operations on the plurality of devices, wherein the command line operations are selected to specifically target extraction of profile elements based on one or more CIP standards;\n complying with the one or more CIP standards by comparing the collected system information for the plurality of devices with the baseline system configurations stored in the database to determine whether any changes have been made that could indicate a potential threat to the critical infrastructure organization; \n reporting in a report if changes have been made to any devices responsive to the comparing step; \n responsive to the reporting, remediating one or more items listed in the report; and \n wherein, responsive to a determination by the processor that no changes have been made to indicate a potential threat to the critical infrastructure organization in a last scheduled collection of system information, the last scheduled collection of system information is stored to the database as the baseline system configurations for the plurality of devices.
