  10. What Will You Learn? • Protection System Misoperations – Impact on Operators • Understanding NERC System Protection Coordination and Misoperation standards – PRC-001 and PRC-004 • Impact of misops on BES reliability • Misoperation reporting process • Misoperation categories and causes • Illustrations of how misops occur

  11. What Will You Learn? • CIP for Operators – The Insider Threat • Behaviors that may signal an insider security threat • Case histories of recent attacks – what to look for…. • How can we prevent, mitigate or stop insider crime?
