Chief Technical Officer - CTO - Teltone Corporation

Ori Artman, Chief Technology Officer, is responsible for Teltone’s product vision and full product cycle, including development, product management and support. Prior to joining Teltone in 2003, Mr. Artman served as Vice President of Technology at MTS LTD , a publicly traded telecommunication software developer with applications in world class call accounting solutions, voice and data billing, OEM solutions and more.

Mr. Artman has spearheaded Teltone’s cyber security initiatives, and is an active participant in utility and security industry interest groups. As a member of NERC (North American Electric Reliability Corporation), he contributed to the evolution of the CIP standard. He currently leads the development of Teltone’s Gauntlet secure communications product, a complete NERC CIP solution. (Gauntlet enables utilities to adopt the NERC CIP standards without disrupting their legacy installed base; helping them evolve to IP-based solutions in a substation environment historically accessed by dial-up.)

Mr. Artman represents Teltone as an early member of the OPSAID (Open PCS Security Architecture for Interoperable Design) interest group, an NSTB (National SCADA Test Bed) project with Sandia National Labs to promote interoperable vendor security solutions for SCADA communications over IP. Ori has also collaborated with Idaho National Labs on various domestic and international projects including the National Vendor Forum, Procurement Language specification, and others.

Ori is a highly-rated speaker at both national and regional events including UTC and DistribuTECH, and was a principal participant in the UTC Substation Automation Study 2006.



Sun, May 06
01:30 PM - 04:30 PM Introduction to Internet Protocol Tutorial
Room: 18AB

Internet Protocol-enabled (IP) communications are expanding from more basic uses to vital core communications, such as substation communications, as a result of the substantial cost savings IP can provide. This session will address ways in which utilities can and are taking advantage of IP in areas such as multimedia collaborations, instant messaging and presence management as well as convergence with Wireless LAN. Hear from experts from the field on the future of IP communications for every utility telecom and IT professional.

 
Mon, May 07
11:30 AM - 12:30 PM The Next Generation– Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)
Room: 18C

Utility telecom professionals will realize benefits and cost savings associated with early transition planning to IPv6 infrastructure. While lower run costs for internal applications (such as control systems and standard information networks) increase the attractiveness of the migration, the current of lack of IPv6 compliant SCADA devices and management software are issues preventing immediate transition. This session will discuss the evolutionary steps from IPv4 to IPv6 and transition mechanisms, along with their corresponding benefits and challenges. Learn how IPv6 infrastructure may offer long-term savings to your utility.

 
01:45 PM - 03:15 PM HOT TOPIC: Two Projects for the Future Utility – Substation Communications and Fiber
Room: 17A

Join the KEMA team that carried out one project and is working on the other, along with major sponsors, to discuss how utilities are working to upgrade their substations and communications networks, but at a pace consistent with available resources and budgets. This session also will look at the technologies being considered; how legacy networks are integrated with new systems; and how fiber networks will increasingly be used to meet a wide variety of internal challenges as well as serve as a revenue opportunity.
