Andy Bochman Biography

Andy Bochman is the Senior Grid Strategist-Defender for Idaho National Laboratory’s National and Homeland Security directorate. In this role, Mr. Bochman provides strategic guidance on topics at the intersection of grid security and climate resilience to INL leadership as well as senior U.S. and international government and industry leaders.

A frequent speaker, writer, and trainer, Bochman has testified before the U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee on energy infrastructure cybersecurity issues and before FERC on the maturity of smart grid cybersecurity standards. He has had recurring conversations on grid security matters with the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and the National Security Council.

In 2021, he published a book introducing INL’s new approach for defending against top-tier cyber adversaries: Countering Cyber Sabotage: Introducing Consequence-based Cyber-Informed Engineering. (Taylor & Francis). More recently he published a three-part series “A Heat Dome Hits Virginia,” which portrays the national and global impacts of a prolonged extreme heat event in the summer of 2025 that causes major data center outages in and around Ashburn VA, also known as Data Center Alley (Security Management, 2022).

He began his career as a communications officer in the US Air Force, and prior to joining INL he was the Global Energy & Utilities Security Lead at IBM and a Senior Advisor at the Chertoff Group in Washington, DC. Bochman received a B.S. from the U.S. Air Force Academy and a M.A. from the Harvard University Extension School.

Andy Bochman Speaking Topics

  • Past is No Longer Prologue

    Historical weather data can no longer guide how we build modern infrastructure that supports energy, water, transportation and communications. When every year brings unprecedented fires, freeze, floods, heatwaves and other formerly rare disruptive and destructive events, governments, contractors and regulators must find new ways to prepare and protect communities. This talk describes some candidate strategies that have proven helpful.

  • Leveraging the Future to Protect the Mission, or Just Live Your Life

    Whether you’re a senior decision-maker in government or industry, or the man or woman on the street, we all need to better understand what climate model projections are telling us. And whether it’s national security, economic security, public health, environmental equity, or deciding where you’d like to raise a family, understanding how to makes sense of climate model data is now a required competency for everyone. This 101-level talk demystifies climate models and points out some helpful resources.

  • OT Security Cyber-Climate Nexus

    A somewhat more technical talk tailored to cybersecurity and other infrastructure protection professionals. Illuminates and extends the parallels between strategies for cyber defense against top tier adversaries and the types of approaches necessary to keep our world running in the face of extreme weather.
