Security & Operational Trust

Security and accountability for technical review.

A technical briefing should establish the authentication, access boundaries, credential protection and audit evidence required by the proposed deployment.

Operational controls

Identity, authority and evidence across every workflow.

Authentication

Identity and trusted devices

Review authentication methods, password protection, multi-factor requirements and device trust against deployment evidence.

Authorisation

Role and scope checks

Define and verify role and scope boundaries for site, installer, portfolio and market operations.

Credentials

Protected market access

Establish how external participant and market credentials would be stored, rotated and protected.

Audit

Configuration and command records

Request evidence of auditing, configuration history and command records for the proposed workflow.

Deployment options

Security requirements decide where responsibilities sit.

Cloud, hybrid and site-resident responsibilities should be selected against the programme’s control, connectivity, recovery and residency constraints, not as a generic infrastructure preference.
