As the grid is increasingly digitized and automated, historical IT skill sets are becoming key to grid transformation. Learn how IT's skills and heritage in designing large scale networks, security architecture, network automation and monitoring are creating the strong foundation for a utility's digitization initiatives. Key points: IT principles create a foundation for deployment automation which reduces human error by creating consistency throughout the environment. Automated policies across the environment allow for consistent validation and enforcement of security policies. Newer deployment and network management models reduce risk and reduce time to deployment as well as time to detection and remediation for issues and outages.
