This chapter opens by outlining Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition systems and the importance of Industrial Control Systems to critical infrastructure. It details two proof-of-concept cases, Aurora and Stuxnet, before systematically breaking down the potential for cyberwarfare on the following areas of CI: electricity generation and distribution; electricity producing sites include nuclear power stations; water treatment and sanitation; dams and reservoirs; the oil and gas industry: rigs, refineries, and pipelines; chemical plants; ports and logistics; merchant shipping; road and rail; and civil aviation. It concludes with some good news and some bad news.
