Neil,
You are absolutely correct. I know
that you are very involved in the AMI-SEC effort and my hope is that much of the
requirements from that will be input to the OpenADR task group within UCAIug
and therefore become part of the OASIS/UCAIug collaboration. Darren
Highfill has been very involved with setting up the OpenADR task group within
UCAIug so I’m fairly confident that this topic will not be ignored.
I’ve never been involved with an
OASIS TC, but it is safe to say that OASIS does have a lot of experience with
cyber security. I’m just not sure how they address this cross
cutting issue within their other TC’s. Can someone that has more
direct experience with OASIS comment on this topic?

Draft charter for proposed OASIS Energy Interoperation Technical Committee
Well, I'm not a member, but for someone who's well
immersed in my own organization's Smart Grid initiative, I would say that one
critical component missing in this draft proposal is a discussion around cyber
security.
There
are a number of interrelated factors that need to be considered relative to
cyber security and the Smart Grid, including the basic attributes (primary
security services) of Confidentiality,
Integrity,
Availability,
Accounting/Auditing,
Identification,
Authentication,
Authorization and
Non-repudiation.
Privacy is another attribute, but it relies upon the others and is mainly
a consideration of laws and regulations and how it relates to the individual.
There
are a lot of factors involved with the implementation of the Smart Grid and it
relies heavily on cyber security.
Best
regards,
Neil

Please find attached the draft charter for the proposed OASIS Energy
Interoperation Technical Committee. I've attached a PDF, OpenDocument, and Word
versions, all with line numbers for ease of discussion and review.
We invite you to comment on this list and to determine your interest in joining
this work - please contact me directly if you would like to be listed as a
supporter.
This proposal is being posted to smartgrid-discuss for (guess what!) discussion
and review. The intent of the drafting group is to revise this draft after a
comment period, and then submit the revised charter to the OASIS' Technical
Committee process,.
The core work of the TC is defining XML and Web services interactions for
so-called Automated Demand Response, growing out of work at the
The LBNL OpenADR body of work is being extended through two
organizations/entities being created: this proposed OASIS Technical Committee
and a proposed UCAIug OpenADR Task Force. In this innovative collaboration, the
UCAIug, whose members are largely utilities and their suppliers, we will focus
requirements, goals, data models and comments through UCAIug, involving their
membership.
If you're not familiar with OASIS Technical Committee Charters, the statement
of purpose is section (1)(b), the scope is section (1)(c), and identification
of similar or applicable work is section (2)(a).
As usual as charters evolve, the list of supporters is empty in this public
discussion draft, and the list of deliverables and timeline is not included --
the next version will have those sections completed. Again, if you would like
to join this work as a supporter and member of the technical committee, let us
know.
Collaboration with other groups of stakeholders is actively being sought;
please contact me for how to get involved. Other stakeholders include energy
market makers, Independent System Operators (such as those in
