check en vrees.... dit werd verwacht.....!!!!! USA kwetsbaar!!!!

So you bring down the entire grid in North America? It's a possibility because everything is interconnected?

Yes. The way the power system works today is that if a piece of our power grid goes down, you use the neighboring power grids to provide enough power in order to bring the generators back up again. Well, if the neighboring power grid is down, how do you do that? So, if you bring down the entire power grid simultaneously, you're going to have to bootstrap the entire system, from the smallest generators get enough power somewhere working to boot the next piece of the power grid, which can be used to then get the next piece of the power grid back up again. And nobody knows how to do that.

My guess is that it's doable, but it's going to be very, very hard to do because we're going to have to figure out how to engineer that answer when it happens to us, as opposed to now.

The reason that SCADA is particularly dangerous is that SCADA is a standard approach towards control systems that pervades everything from water supply to fuel lines. The problem is that most SCADA systems are running Microsoft operating systems, and if you are running a Microsoft operating system, you have a target painted on your forehead.

Rofl, microsoft :P
Het probleem is: als je een linux/unix sys draaid kan er ook een GAT inzitte
waar een hax0r door naar binnen kan lopen....
GEEN operating system is waterdicht. Alleen Systeem operators die een
Linux/unix systeem draaien hebben meestal meer verstand van systemen en
gooien de zooi beter dicht dan de gemiddelde Windows sysop.

De enige oplossing blijft: hang belangerijke dingen NIET aan 't internet...

Deze effecten zijn in de openbare KWINT discussies ook aan bod geweest.

uhh, was die laatst grote stroomstoring in Italie niet veroorzaakt doordat er een
boom over de kabels heen was gevallen ? (naar men zegt)
Ennuh, gewoon doorgaan met privatiseren, gaat de boel vanzelf plat
