--Jeff Bilger - Dr. Lazowska briefly mentioned SCADA systems during tonight's lecture. Back in April of 2003, the PBS documentary program Frontline aired a program titled Cyber War! that highlighted the vulnerability of our power grid due to SCADA systems. It's a bit theatrical, but worth a watch since it touches on all the topics we have discussed in class so far.

Also, it would be interesting to know if anything has been done since 2003 to further secure these SCADA systems from attack.
