On-Demand Webinar – Application Domain Partitioning for Smart Grid Security

Length: 17 minutes

This webinar discusses how an integrated multi-tier communications network can be partitioned into virtual network domains to ensure end-to-end security and QoS for Smart Grid applications. The discussion will provide an opportunity to learn about:

• the basics of a multi-tier Smart Grid network. Learn how communications can be segmented into wide area networks (WAN), neighborhood area networks (NAN), and home area networks (HAN).
• virtual network domains. Learn how the multi-tier Smart Grid communications network can partitioned into distinct virtual network domains.
• application security and QoS. Learn how each applications can be segmented into domains to ensure security and quality-of-service (QoS).

White Paper – The HAN Gateway Architecture: Future-Proofing Considerations

Recent reports predict that 100 million smart meters will be deployed in the next five years and that half of these will have a built-in Home Area Network (HAN) gateway for in-home energy management programs and services. ON World’s survey of 77 utilities in the United States also found that 21% are planning to integrate a HAN gateway into every smart meter deployed.
