Introducing PJM's security council

摘要

Some of the nation's experts in security will help ensure the continued reliability of the Northeast region's electric power grid, PJM Interconnection, through the formation of the Security Advisory Council. This group of security experts will provide independent and objective evaluations, appraisals and recommendations to PJM. Specifically, the council will advise PJM on the company's physical and cyber security operations. The council members are: Thomas W. Leo, security operations manager, Union Bank of Switzerland; Linnell E. Trimbell, senior manager, corporate security, AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals; and Barry L. Freedman, corporate security manager, Radianz. "The council supports our achievement of a fundamental responsibility," said Phillip G. Harris, PJM's president and chief executive officer. "To ensure the safety and reliability of the electric transmission system, we must make certain that PJM's security plans and operations are current with best practices."
