ISIS terrorists tried, but failed miserably, to breach company networks production ηλεκτρικής ενέργειας των ΗΠΑ, για τον τερματισμό των υπηρεσιών τους στις αμερικανικές πόλεις και businesses, he says WTVR.
The news comes from John Riggi, head of the FBI's cyber security department. Mr. Riggi announced the news for the first time at GridSecCon, a conference on US electricity companies held in Philadelphia from 13 to 16 in October.
The reason why hackers were unable to gain access was their low skill level, but according to the FBI, this can easily be offset by buying the necessary tools from the black market.
This, of course, will not be difficult for the Islamic state, as everyone knows they have enough income from the oil they buy from the occupied territories.
Despite ISIS' hacking attempts, the FBI doesn't seem too concerned, especially because if hackers managed to penetrate the network of US electricity and do damage, they wouldn't be able to affect more than a city block or an entire city at once.
Αυτό συμβαίνει επειδή το δίκτυο ηλεκτρικής ενέργειας των ΗΠΑ αποτελείται από εκατοντάδες εταιρείες παροχής ηλεκτρικής ενέργειας, που η καθεμία έχει το δικό της δίκτυο και την δική της εσωτερική δομή, γεγονός που καθιστά πολύ δύσκολη την μεταφορά τη λειτουργία ενός κακόβουλου λογισμικού από τη μία company on the other.
Currently, the FBI and others services who continue to monitor US cyberspace, are reportedly more concerned about Kremlin-sponsored hacking groups.
