        <description><![CDATA[Security through obscurity is not unacceptable because our power systems are being networked,  it's unacceptable because it's not secure. Obscurity does not prevent the determined from discovering and exploiting vulnerabilities, even in systems that are not networked, as Stuxnet demonstrated.What obscurity does do is prevent the type of transparency and cooperation that has fostered the active Internet security community that drives advances in security for  IP-based systems. As a result, obscurity can actually hinder security.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Distributed energy generation is not a security panacea. All these distributed energy sources will still have to be interconnected so they can back each other up, just as power plants are today. As we know from previous large area blackouts, they can start with a single component failure, and cascade because power systems have to be interconnected.A lot of smaller energy generation sites actually can create security issues. Because installations are smaller, they may not employ full-time security professionals or have access to the latest knowledge and technology. Consider, for example, that much of our computing power is distributed down to the level of home PCs, and home PCs are very vulnerable to getting taken over by a virus. Why? Because the average home PC owner understands little about security and has little time to do anything about it.Finally, one of the biggest goals of smart grid technology is to limit the effect of component failures, whether natural or hacked. And yet the article is basically saying that these efforts are doomed to failure, and we must employ other strategies instead.]]></description>
