About This Course
The global utilities industry faces a unique threat environment. Aging assets, surging demand from data centers, consumer and regulatory scrutiny, escalating cyberattacks, and unpredictable natural disasters are placing unprecedented strain on the grid. And though reliability is crucial, true resilience goes much further; it’s the power to anticipate, withstand, and rapidly recover from any disruption, ensuring continuous operations, team safety, and long-term growth.
However, many utilities struggle with a fragmented, manual approach that slows their resilience efforts. This webinar will take a closer look at the current risk landscape, regulatory environment, and will cover how resilience technology can help move your agency beyond reliability and into full enterprise resilience.
During the webinar, subject-matter experts will demonstrate how utilities can unify their resilience strategy, leveraging digital technology to:
  • Implement operational playbooks
  • Achieve transparent, real-time communication during crises
  • Ensure supply-chain readiness
  • Bolster compliance and fortify security-resilience
Target Audience
  • Utility executives and senior leaders

  • Risk, resilience, and emergency management teams

  • IT and OT leaders responsible for critical infrastructure

  • Compliance, security, and operations managers
