PEG: 10-K Risk Factor Changes

Our processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats include:

Ongoing Assessment—Cybersecurity, led by the VP, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), reporting to the SVP, Chief Information and Digital Officer (CIDO), is staffed with cyber professionals who assess material risks from cybersecurity threats. In addition, the Cybersecurity Council, comprised of senior management, is kept apprised of PSEG’s cybersecurity program, including any emerging risks, and provides guidance on the strategic direction of the program.

engage material risks from cybersecurity threats, assess our internal incident response preparedness and cyber posture, support incident response, conduct tabletop exercises, and comply with applicable laws and regulations. We also carry cybersecurity insurance that provides certain protection against losses from a cybersecurity incident. Regulatory agencies, including, but not limited to, the NRC, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and NERC, inspect applicable components of our cybersecurity program.

Nth-Party Service Provider Management—We maintain processes to oversee and identify risks from cybersecurity threats associated with our use of Nth-party service providers, including a risk-based vendor management program, which incorporates cybersecurity contractual provisions, vendor security assessments and, if appropriate, periodic audits.

Technical Safeguards—We manage controls to protect our network perimeter, internal IT, and Operational Technology (OT) environments, including internal and external firewalls, network intrusion detection and prevention tools, penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, threat intelligence, endpoint security, and access controls.

Training and Awareness—We provide mandatory annual cybersecurity training to all personnel with network access, and additional education to personnel with access to industrial control systems and/or customer information systems. We conduct phishing exercises with progressive consequences for failures. We also share periodic cybersecurity awareness messages and each year, in recognition of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we host presentations from internal and external cyber experts on diverse cyber topics. These efforts better enable those with network access to identify potential cybersecurity risks and escalate them appropriately.

Incident Response Plans—We maintain and periodically update a cyber incident response plan that covers technical (i.e., detection, response, and recovery) and collaborative (i.e. external communication/disclosure and legal compliance) aspects of cyber incident and breach response; and conduct tabletop exercises to test plan effectiveness (both internally and through external exercises).

Mobile Security—We maintain controls to prevent loss of data through mobile devices.

Artificial Intelligence Security—We maintain AI governance, including policies and a council, incorporating AI into our Nth Party Risk Assessment process, and implementing technical controls that enable people to use AI to complete tasks more efficiently and our cyber team to better combat more sophisticated threats that make use of AI.

Physical Security—We maintain physical security measures to protect our OT systems, consistent with a defense in-depth and risk-tiered approach. Physical security measures may include access control systems, video surveillance, around-the-clock command center monitoring, and physical barriers (e.g. fencing, walls, and bollards). Additional features of PSEG’s physical security program include threat intelligence, insider threat mitigation, background checks, a threat level advisory system, a business interruption management model, and active coordination with federal, state, and local law enforcement officials. See Item 1. Business. Regulatory Issues—Federal Regulation for a discussion of Critical Infrastructure Protection standards that the NERC promulgated that mitigate risk associated with both cybersecurity and physical security of PSEG’s critical facilities.

These processes are integral to our overall risk management system/processes and inform the identification and assessment of risks and mitigations through our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program. The ERM team, led by the SVP, Audit, Enterprise, Risk and Compliance (AERC) considers cybersecurity risks alongside other PSEG risks, and facilitates discussion with PSEG subject matter experts to identify cybersecurity risks, evaluate their potential severity and likelihood, identify mitigations, including those identified above, and assess the impact of those mitigations on residual risk. In addition, PSEG maintains a Risk Management Committee (RMC), responsible for assessing exposure to and determining PSEG's overall risk management strategy, including with respect to cybersecurity. The RMC, supported by the ERM function, is chaired by the SVP, AERC and consists of members of senior management including the CIDO and six of the CEO’s other direct reports. In discharging its responsibilities related to cybersecurity threats, the RMC has received presentations from the CISO. To date, there has been no material impact or reasonably likely material impact on our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition from cybersecurity attacks or incidents.

Management’s Role in Assessing and Managing Material Cybersecurity Risks:

The assessment and management of material risks from cyber threats is managed by the CIDO, CISO and Cybersecurity Council, as further described below.

CIDO—The CIDO has had the overall responsibility for PSEG’s cybersecurity since September 2022, including the assessment and management of material risks to PSEG from cybersecurity threats. The CIDO has served in that position since August 2020 and is a direct report to the CEO. The CIDO has over 25 years of energy experience inclusive of leading technology compliance with cybersecurity regulations for nuclear, transmission, gas and corporate assets. Our CIDO’s experience includes leading the secure technology design, development, and deployment strategy for grid modernization efforts, including digital customer engagement platforms, advanced metering, enterprise asset management and distribution automation functionality.

As noted above, the CIDO regularly attends and provides updates with the CISO to the IOC.
