You can’t go a day without finding an article on the impending threat to the energy sector and a country’s critical control operations.
Cyberattacks on these targets can and have resulted in disruption of critical local, regional, and national government and commercial infrastructures.
As a result, when they are breached, the impact on societies they serve stands to be catastrophic.
The damages to property and ensuing theft will amount tens of billions of dollars, and the loss of life will be significant.
