Increasing Attacks Against Grid Systems

This article over in the Dark Reading brings up an issue that power companies apparently have been denying for a long time. However, for those of you who get the weekly SANS newsletter may have seen the sideline from Alan Paller: “The data that will be discussed at the SCADA Security Summit (http://www.sans.org/scada-security-summit-2010/) will make it much harder for EEI to claim it isn’t happening.” The power companies spokespersons seem to be in complete denial, but reports are showing over 120 attacks have been carried out against such systems.
