Internet H4X0r5
Now… I’m not really a security expert, and I’ve never been tasked with making something as socially critical as a power plant safe from electronic attacks, but I think I have a solution to this problem.
There will be profanity. Ready? Ok.
Don’t connect your fucking powerplants to the fucking internet, you fucking chimps. Internet access? Sure, fine, power plants use email too. But none of the actual control or production equipment has any reason to be connected to the internet. I know your IT guy adored Hackers, and whatever, but you had to smell the bullshit on this at some point.
I’ll close by saying that I don’t defacto trust any of the items presented in this article. It seems thin and too vague. Also, it mentions the CIA, which demerits a claim by at least 25%.
