usa taking down by worm

****Regarding the potential for cyber war and what the threat is. Are SCADA systems the weak link? Is that why it's important to understand this technology?

SCADA systems are only one component of U.S. critical infrastructure. They're not the most important component, but they're one that we don't understand very well today. They're one that has difficulty applying security. We understand physical security, we know how to achieve physical security. So when we look at SCADA, we're looking at only one node in the overall security approach to U.S. critical infrastructure.

Scada is mostly running on windows machines...

SCADA systems, and there's also a commonality in the communication handshakes or protocol between systems, like in the electrical grid. Is that a problem, and explain what the situation is.

The commonality in SCADA systems is really the technology that they're adopting to be effective and cost-effective in our current economy, and that is Internet technologies, IP-based communications, and operating systems that are popular and are prevalent in our economy. The problem with adopting these technologies -- SCADA using these technologies to implement its command and control -- is that they're adopting not only the technology but they're adopting the broad base of vulnerabilities and adversaries that are able to take advantage of those vulnerabilities.


Weiss says also that our control centers have in almost all cases firewalls, intrusion detection, demilitarized zones, everything you could put around them to secure them. That same thing cannot be said for power plants for substations.

It has been our experience that the SCADA infrastructure is not protected to the same degree as IT infrastructure, as far as computer security and information security. I think that those techniques and technologies are being adopted today. ...

Nee, het bericht is al reeds tegengesproken door DShield. Er is geen sprake van welke worm dan ook die een power-drain heeft mogelijk gemaakt.

weet je wat lachen is? in het voormalig russisch ruimte station MIR draaiden ze met een SONY MSX2 Computer, dus nu vraag ik me af of ISA ruimtestation op Microsoft Windows of Linux draait, en jah een virusbesmetting lijkt me niet onwaarschijnlijk daar in de ruimte, in de tijden van MSX2 hadden ze die problemen nog niet...

Ik weet zeker dat ze emailen vanuit de ruimte dat zag ik bij NASA op de TV....

Vervelende typefout, maar moest dat inderdaad 'rivaliserende' zijn.
