Sandworm becomes WORMS! Cyber-warfare!

1. "Ukraine Goes Dark: Russia-Attributed Hackers Take Down Power Grid"

"As many as 80,000 residents in western Ukraine lost power for six hours on Dec. 23. Cybersecurity firms SANS ICS and iSight Partners have attributed the blackout to Russian hacking group Sandworm and its malicious software, BlackEnergy 3."

"Cyberattacks on power grids and other critical infrastructure are not new, but this most recent attack seems to be the first use of cyber as a weapon with kinetic effects during an ongoing conflict, highlighting the growing importance of cybersecurity."

NO REAL DIFFERENCE THAN IF THE POWER PLANT/ELECTRICAL GRID STRUCK WITH A CONVENTIONAL BOMB AS DROPPED BY A WARPLANE. THE PLANT/GRID OFF-LINE, DAMAGED, NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE ELECTRICAL POWER TO CONSUMERS!

2. "Admiral Mike Rogers: Charlie Rose"

"On 'Charlie Rose,' a conversation with Admiral Mike Rogers. He is Director of the National Security Agency and leads U.S. Cyber Command. He assumed both posts in 2014, as the NSA faced the fallout from Edward Snowden’s leaks. Last month, the Agency announced it would consolidate its offensive and defensive operations."

The head of NSA Admiral Mike Rogers speaks of this event [the hacker attack on the power plant/electrical grid in Ukraine] and other matters. Very interesting and worth listening to. * As noted by Admiral Mike the hackers and perpetrators of the cyber-warfare attack on the power plant/electrical grid not only took the system down but had anticipated and taken into account what measures would be taken to restore service! Creative mischief with guile at the same time.

According to Admiral Mike and even more serious threat * WILL BE HACKERS AND CYBER-WARFARE WHERE MANIPULATION OF DATA IS THE OBJECT AND NOT MERELY AN ATTACK WITH "KINETIC EFFECT"!!
