Book excerpt: The United States Government Cyber Terrorism Taskforce is taken down with the power grid. Millions of Dollars and Sophisticated surveillance systems and power grid protection measures are no match for a simple elementary method of taking down the American power grid. While cyber surveillance systems monitor the power grid and watch for cracks from crackers around the world, the grid is taken down across the USA all at once without any warning. The simple technique used is not only an embarrassment to the Government but leaves America without power and communications for almost a month. The results of a month without power are both controversial and enlightening.

Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Electricity is the lifeblood of modern society, powering everything from homes and businesses to critical infrastructure. A complete electrical grid failure occurs when a widespread disruption interrupts the normal functioning of the power distribution system, leaving communities without access to electricity. Why Understanding Grid Down USA is important As an 80-year-old grandfather with a medical problem, a grid-down situation eliminates the possibility of me or you getting emergency medical attention. But it is worse than that as a grid-down occurrence takes us back to the ages of no electricity or the horse and buggy days. In this book, the Grid-Down lasts as much as a year. As you will learn that is a catastrophic event causing millions of lives here in the US to be lost. It is not the intent of this book to go into a major detailing of how the power grid works, but to its vulnerabilities. And eventually to its consequences.

This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans' safety, productivity, comfort, and convenience depend on the reliable supply of electric power. The electric power system is a complex "cyber-physical" system composed of a network of millions of components spread out across the continent. These components are owned, operated, and regulated by thousands of different entities. Power system operators work hard to assure safe and reliable service, but large outages occasionally happen. Given the nature of the system, there is simply no way that outages can be completely avoided, no matter how much time and money is devoted to such an effort. The system's reliability and resilience can be improved but never made perfect. Thus, system owners, operators, and regulators must prioritize their investments based on potential benefits. Enhancing the Resilience of the Nation's Electricity System focuses on identifying, developing, and implementing strategies to increase the power system's resilience in the face of events that can cause large-area, long-duration outages: blackouts that extend over multiple service areas and last several days or longer. Resilience is not just about lessening the likelihood that these outages will occur. It is also about limiting the scope and impact of outages when they do occur, restoring power rapidly afterwards, and learning from these experiences to better deal with events in the future.
