Critics say bill to protect electric grid from cyberattacks lacks teeth
By Jill R. Aitoro
Excerpt:
Tom Kellermann, vice president of security awareness at Core Security Technologies and former senior data risk management specialist for the World Bank treasury security team, agreed that the requirements should be expanded, but said that could be accomplished in separate legislation.
"This bill represents a paradigm shift -- one which champions government leadership per critical infrastructure security," he said. "It illustrates that the threat is real and that reactive cybersecurity cannot be tolerated when it comes to protecting our electric infrastructure."
