Gridzilla: How Cyber Monsters are Stomping on Our Power Lines
“Energy Sector Cyber Threats” have morphed into a digital Godzilla, leaving malware footprints across power grids. From Ukraine to your local power company, hackers have shown they can flick the switch, causing a blackout more potent than any storm. Like a game of Jenga, each compromised block risks a total system collapse.
Hot Take:
You know how in movies the bad guys always aim for the power grid to throw the city into chaos? Well, it seems like this movie trope is not so far-fetched. Ukraine can testify firsthand to the power (pun intended) of cyberattacks on energy infrastructure. It's like a digital Godzilla stomping on power lines, except the monster is invisible and its footprints are in the form of malware and DDoS attacks.Already a member? Log in here
