Excerpt:
The growth in cyber attacks on critical infrastructure is largely due to these companies' increasing reliance on computer networks in the aftermath of the 2001 terrorist attacks, according to Mr. Kellermann, who is now a vice president at a computer security firm Core Security Technologies.
