Standoff 14: the international cyberbattle
Electric power industry
Electricity is generated by thermal, hydroelectric, and solar power plants, as well as by wind turbines. It is then delivered through power lines to substations that feed organizations, factories, and transport. All substations are managed by a dispatch control center, and smart meters send readings directly to the energy company.
Tampering with data displayed on operator workstations or in the dispatch control center could disrupt the scheduled operations of power supply facilities. Hackers could also halt a steam turbine at a thermal power plant or shut down all substations, which would plunge State F into darkness.
