Re: Hackers Target U.S. Power Grid

Power grids existed long before networked-computers came out. Why would the grid be so vulnerable now? Shouldn't those critical networks be isolated from outside access altogether?



Secondly, they should be more worried about grid overloads from all the power source shifting done today. The grids were not designed to handle that kind of loads and problems like the recent NYC-NE blackout will occur again.
