DHS Warning: Russian Malware Has Infected Vital US Infrastructure Systems -What Can You Do to Prepare for a Grid-Down Attack?
Robert Roberston / Western Journalism
A bulletin from the Department of Homeland Security was issued this past week week warning that Russian hackers have penetrated and inserted malware into some of the nation’s most vital infrastructure systems.
The malware, which was inserted as part of a hacking campaign that dates back to 2011, has been found in software used to control industrial operations like oil and gas pipelines, power transmission grids, water distribution and filtration systems, wind turbines, and even some nuclear plants. While sources say no attempts have been made to activate it, cyber-security experts say the malware is very advanced and could be used to trigger the shutdown of vital public utilities throughout the country.
Earlier this year, a similar attack infected computers at over 1,000 energy companies in over 80 countries. That attack, which infected computers with a virus known as “Energetic Bear”, allowed hackers to take control of power plants and cripple their systems with the click of a mouse.
This new threat allows hackers to take control of various industrial processes through infected computers. The hack became known to industry insiders last week when a DHS alert bulletin was issued by the agency’s Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team. The bulletin said the “BlackEnergy” penetration had been detected by several U.S. companies, and claimed it was the same malware used by a Russian cyber-espionage group to target NATO and some energy and telecommunications companies in Europe earlier this year.
The Coming Cyber Wars
For years, I have been warning people about the coming cyber wars–something U.S. officials have been quietly preparing for over the last couple of years. In 2013, the Obama administration conducted an internal review of how they could use cyber-warfare to preemptively attack countries who posed a threat to our “national security interests.”
