Analysis
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) held a training to help the Chevron Salt Lake Refinery, along with other local partners around the state [1]. The training reviewed CISA’s Tabletop Exercise Package (CTEP), which would help businesses protect themselves from incidents, as well as establish a solid emergency response plan. CTEP includes the following things:
• Overview
• Background
• Resource Access
• Scenarios
• Program Materials
o Exercise Planner Guidance
o Exercise Design Templates
• Impact and Resilience
• Access to HSIN-CI [2].
We recommend those involved in the critical infrastructure sector be active in training events like CISA’s. Trainings and exercise packages could help an organization develop and improve policies and procedures. -
