Cyber Attack in Israel - One More Reminder of Threat To Power Grid
Israel���s Public Utility Authority found itself on the receiving end of one of the largest cyber attacks it has ever experienced, according to Yuval Steinitz, Minister of Infrastructure, Energy and Water. The attack came during an especially-harsh cold spell for the nation, which saw record-breaking consumption of electricity resources.
The reminders keep coming about just how at-risk national and worldwide energy resources remain. Among the more talked-about threats includes those associated with high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attacks. These attacks, which can be caused by solar storms and lightning bolts, as well as by a nuclear explosion, have the capacity to generate particle surges from the ionosphere that could act to disable power grids and electrical equipment. The damage ultimately caused will, of course, vary on the size of the EMP, as well as its location, but the point is that the effects could be very devastating���particularly if a rogue nation or non-state group purposely detonated such a weapon for the express purpose of causing the trouble outlined here - instantly, an affected region would be plunged into a world of darkness, and what���s especially troubling is that it is estimated that it could take years for an area to recover from an EMP attack.
