Cyber-Attack Against Ukrainian Critical Infrastructure

&quot;These [contingency] plans should include the assumption that the ICS (Industrial Control System) is actively working counter to the safe operation of the process.&quot;<p>Shades of &quot;Maximum Overdrive&quot;. (Without the supernatural element, of course. Which makes it <i>more</i> scary if you&#x27;re paying attention, eh?)

&quot;The [Black Energy] malware was reportedly delivered via spear phishing emails with malicious Microsoft Office attachments.&quot;<p>Again it seems this is the easiest way to get inside of any sufficiently large organization.

which state or individuals within those states benefit from attacking Ukraine&#x27;s infrastructure?<p>How likely is it that these are the same people that have wreaked havoc in previous years?<p>Who supports rebellion in Donetsk and beyond?<p>It&#x27;s like the emperor wears no clothes for lot of Putin&#x27;s folloewrs.
