US Energy Attack


A sends:

Energy Attack on U.S.

Based on tips we received, the reported attack on U.S. energy sector mentioned this week @WSJ is based joint investigations by DHS and FBI on a DOE hack last year, which recently surfaced again with a threat to release NNSA documents.

Our source provided document from a privileged area of an underground forum proving the attacker attempted to gain access to various power facilities inside the U.S. These particular plants are using nuclear materials to produce electricity and the hack motive, apparently, was damage to U.S. nuclear and controlled hazard sites which in this case are providing electrical power.

Based on the tip, we expect a major release regarding this issue coming up during "a summit focused on Syria". We trust informed readers who follow the news are already familiar with the timeline and details of this story.

The high tension at Washington gives us something the "pictures" don't. Seems like the political angle of this particular case is much more damaging than a regular cyber threat or even a direct combatant hit to U.S. administration such as the Bengazi scandal.
