After the pipeline got shot down, it got me thinking about our electrical grid. If they managed to sit it down for just a few weeks, the damage and loss of life would be catastrophic. Why on earth are these systems even accessable to anyone outside this country?

Even air-gapped systems are susceptible.

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what system anything is using, there will always be vulnerabilities. Nothing can be 100% secure.
