I put this up awhile ago on You Tube but I think its appropriate now since China cyber attacks have been reported and now the CIA admits the black out was because of cyber attack

The CIA on Friday admitted that cyberattacks have caused at least one power outage affecting multiple cities outside the United States.

Alan Paller, director of research at the SANS Institute, said that CIA senior analyst Tom Donahue confirmed that online attackers had caused at least one blackout. The disclosure was made at a New Orleans security conference Friday attended by international government officials, engineers, and security managers from North American energy companies and utilities.

Paller said that Donahue presented him with a written statement that read, "We have information, from multiple regions outside the United States, of cyber intrusions into utilities, followed by extortion demands. We suspect, but cannot confirm, that some of these attackers had the benefit of inside knowledge. We have information that cyberattacks have been used to disrupt power equipment in several regions outside the United States. In at least one case, the disruption caused a power outage affecting multiple cities. We do not know who executed these attacks or why, but all involved intrusions through the Internet."

if you want to know whats scary is that nuclear power plants run on computers have not had their computers protected or updated to protect them from cyber attack or other power plants... and the government is well aware they haven't either

Negligence like the 911 episode
you have to wonder whats going on???
US has put very little money in keeping their systems safe
IT personell have been cut but is that smart

1. I have $5.00 that says...
That most of the attacks are coming out of Russian Business Net servers, and that most have to do with "electronic blackmail" or cyber-vandalism.
