Cyber-Nuclear Forum

The Forum brings together cyber-nuclear leaders to share experiences and practices to strengthen cybersecurity at nuclear facilities. Meetings are by invitation only, with up to forty attendees, to provide an environment for substantive engagement. Specifically, we are:

• Facilitating the sharing of best practices. We are bringing together experts from industry-leading organizations, as well as new or small nuclear facilities. Participants include chief information security officers, lead computer security engineers, cyber-nuclear security managers, and others who can share best practices and lay the groundwork for a global cyber-nuclear expert network. Example agenda topics include developing risk frameworks, embedding cybersecurity into organizational culture, recruiting and retaining talent, and addressing supply chain challenges.
• Creating a self-sustaining entity. In partnership with the nuclear industry, international organizations, and industry groups, we are working to develop the appropriate partnerships and funding sources for ongoing Forum support.
• Guided by a steering group. To guide the overall effort, including its sustainability, we have created a Forum steering group, drawing members from key nuclear operators from around the world.

NTI thanks the sponsors of the Cyber-Nuclear Forum—Bruce Power, Exelon Corporation, Urenco, the Nuclear Energy Institute and the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office—without whom the Forum would not be possible.

In keeping with NTI’s impact model, NTI successfully spun off the Cyber-Nuclear Forum, and it is now housed at the World Institute for Nuclear Security (WINS).
