This is a deep dive into how an attacker would accomplish something like burning down a politician's house at night or causing a catastrophic failure of a manufacturing line using the future hyperconnected grid. During the presentation we lay out theoretical, but realistic, attacks that go so far as burning down cities via attacks on the grid.
Scenarios includes the full chain of the attacks based on a hypothetical software package and operating environment that is realistic for the current utility space (but does not disclose actual vulnerabilities in the real software due to the lack of patching practice in this space).
