| | | | Sponsored | | Last month, the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) said that U.S. power grids are becoming more susceptible to cyberattacks every day, with vulnerable attack vectors increasing by about 60 a day. What’s more, extreme weather events also place the grid and power supply at risk... |
