Risk Forecast: Windy

mnemonic security podcast

In this episode, Robby speaks with Jens Christian Vedersø, Head of Cyber Risk Management at Vestas, one of the world’s largest wind turbine manufacturers.

Jens is a former Navy and intelligence officer and recovering regulator. Before managing cyber risk in the renewable energy sector, Jens helped develop energy sector legislation and cyber preparedness at the Danish Energy Agency, and served as a subject matter expert for SCADA, OT, ICS and IoT at the Danish Center for Cyber Security.

In the discussion Jens shares his unique perspective on how security acts as both an enabler and a potential barrier in the transition towards renewable energy transition, and how the industry needs to move from a reactive, compliance-driven approach towards a more proactive, risk-based model. Jens also shares insights into the threat landscape, potential motivations of state actors, and how Vestas is working to quantify cyber risk and empower customers to better understand and control their own cyber risks.
