The power infrastructure is critical to all, yet vulnerable to take down by varying levels of sophistication depending on the intent of the attacker(s). Since 2016, the United States has seen an increase in attacks on the power system, from shootings at substations to ransomware. But this issue of attacks is not limited to the United States. Countries around the world have seen an increase in attacks as well.
During this session, we will talk with security experts from various countries around the world to hear about the threats, current methods, and means of protection, what works or doesn’t work, and considerations for protecting this infrastructure into the future.
Learning Objective #1: Understand the threats to the power infrastructure around the world.
Learning Objective #2: Hear what methods of protection have been successful and what haven’t.
Learning Objective #3: Understand what can be done moving into the future to protect these systems.
