What Are We Waiting For?

So, municipal water companies are getting hacked. And it may be Iran who’s behind this? What about Russia?

If everything is computerized, if all our critical infrastructure is vulnerable, then of course it’s past time we bolster these systems, focus funds and personnel in their direction, bring people up to speed on the technology, employ hackers of our own for defensive purposes and to stay at least one step ahead, keep the assaults on vital systems at bay.

If this is the world we’re living in, let’s stop acting like it isn’t, and prioritize funding for places that will keep the water flowing and the lights on.

It’s not like we haven’t been able to see this coming!
