They have already changed the standards so that along with the usual risks that are assessed during design cyber attacks have been added problem is practically all oil and gas facilities have very little current protection and in most cases no idea what systems are communicating with what therefore no way to quantify the how far a hacker can get. The is a whole new industry springing up to assess current plants exposure, I am seeing a profitable new branch of my industry to get into. Anyone there with ideas on how to get into it let me know. I have already a plan but more info welcome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
