The Infiltration of U.S. Control Systems
CERT Alert TA18-074A removed any doubts that hostile nation-states are actively targeting U.S. industrial control systems

Nick Bilogorskiy, cybersecurity strategist at Juniper Networks, said, “The nature of armed conflicts has changed dramatically…in the modern world, cyberwarfare can be used by a foreign entity to launch a devastating attack against the United States without a single bomb or missile. Cyber-attacks have been used in a broader strategy of information warfare. Some examples are denial of service attacks, espionage malware, dissemination of disinformation and propaganda, social media election manipulation, and website or Twitter defacements.”
