Our Company

The Electricity Information Sharing and Analysis Center (E-ISAC www.eisac.com ) was formed in 1999 in response to Presidential Decision Directive 63. The E-ISAC, in collaboration with the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Electricity Subsector Coordinating Council (ESCC), is designed to serve as the primary security communications channel for the electricity industry. Its vision is to become a world-class, trusted source of quality analysis and rapid sharing of security information for the electricity industry, and its mission is to reduce cyber and physical security risk to the electricity industry across North America by providing unique insights, leadership, and collaboration. By fulfilling the vision and mission, E-ISAC will enhance the industry's ability to prepare for and respond to cyber and physical security threats, vulnerabilities, and incidents.


The E-ISAC is a member-focused organization that interacts with and requires the support of a broad spectrum of stakeholders, including electricity industry asset owners and operators, governmental organizations, industry trade associations, research organizations, and supply chain vendors. Its primary focus is on security issues at the bulk power and local distribution system levels and strengthening cross-sector resilience.

Our Mission

The vision for the ERO Enterprise, which is comprised of NERC and the six Regional Entities, is a highly reliable and secure North American bulk power system. Our mission is to assure the effective and efficient reduction of risks to the reliability and security of the grid.
