—–Could hackers turn the lights out?
链接
For a long time computer security experts have warned about the threat hackers pose to the systems that help control the power stations, water treatment plants and transport systems we rely on.
Just before Christmas, that theoretical threat become all too real for more than 225,000 Ukrainians who were plunged into darkness by a sophisticated attack on one of the nation’s power companies.
The attackers struck late in the afternoon on 23 December and used the remote access they had gained to computers in the control centre of power firm Prykarpattyaoblenergo to flip circuit breakers and shut down substations.
In total, about 30 substations were turned off, including those that served one of the control rooms for Prykarpattyaoblenergo, so staff struggling to get the lights back on were forced to find a fix in the dark.
Even now, months after the attack, computer systems at the Ukrainian energy company are not quite fixed because the “Killdisk” malware used in the attack deleted key files.
