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 9):
A computerized system for complying with certain critical infrastructure protection requirements regarding a plurality of machines at least a portion of which are networked together, wherein the system comprises:\n a collection host programmed with a configuration collection engine, wherein the configuration collection engine is configured to gather system information based on information needed to comply with one or more critical infrastructure protection (\u201cCIP\u201d) 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 collection host is configured to communicate 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; a database having stored one or more records that establishes baseline system configurations for the plurality of machines on the network; and a reporting server configured to monitor for system changes to one or more of the plurality of machines on the network based on a comparison between system information gathered by the collection host and the baseline system configurations in the database; wherein, responsive to a determination by the reporting server that changes have been made to indicate a potential threat to the critical infrastructure organization, remediating one or more items listed in the report; and wherein, responsive to a determination by the reporting server 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.
