About Stephen Carr

I have 25+ years of professional experience as a leader in cyber security programs and IT management for nuclear utilities, working in management roles for Florida Power and Light (FPL and as a consultant). Mr. Carr co-authored NEI 08-09, NEI 10-04 and NEI 10-09, as well as the FPL’s NEI License Submittal for Cyber Security for Nuclear Power Reactors. Currently, I am managing a team at a nuclear utility implementing NEI 08-09. I have led a team in creating and implementing a streamlined process for evaluating digital assets. Under my leadership and leveraging first-hand knowledge of NEI 08 -09, the team assisted leadership in meeting one of their compliance milestones months ahead of schedule. I served as the IT Group Manager and Fleet Cyber Program Manager for FPL. I led a team of more than 50 staff in a multi-million dollar project to bring 5 nuclear power plants into cyber compliance. I have a rich network of relationships across the nuclear industry, including with NEI and NRC. I was invited to participate in the Strategic Teaming and Resource Sharing Alliance, Utilities Service Alliance and Nuclear Information Technology Strategic Leadership strategic for cyber security compliance. I retired as a non-commissioned officer of the U.S. Air Force. I held numerous leadership roles including the management of military personnel involved in the recovery/analysis of Shuttle Columbia, the network infrastructure in Iraq, and facilitation of critical encrypted communications in response to the Twin Towers attack.
