A how-to guide for hacking your local utility (and what to do now that it is out there)

>> By Erich W. Gunther Recently, a well-known cyber security researcher released detailed vulnerabilities for specific, critical infrastructure products. In addition, he released modules for the security tool Metasploit. . · The danger of those revelations · The motivations behind them · Their impact on trust (and why trust is so important) The very real dangers The vulnerabilities that were exposed are real, not academic. If you release vulnerability and exploit information broadly before providing it to the affected vendors and utilities, you exponentially increase both the risk and the cost of mitigation. (To see the potential when things go wrong in electric power infrastructure, see the video of a talk I gave at Google headquarters – "Smart Grid: Utilities, and Internet Protocols.

" The danger to budgets too Contrast this with the expectations for devices in other sectors. And it gets worse. Cyber expert on SMART GRID: massive vulnerability, who's accountable?

Radiofrequency Radiation: The Invisible Hazards of “Smart” Meters. “The Seletun Scientific Statement recommends that lower limits be established for electromagnetic fields and wireless exposures, based on scientific studies reporting health impacts at much lower exposure levels.

Radiofrequency Radiation: The Invisible Hazards of “Smart” Meters

Many researchers now believe that existing safety limits are inadequate to protect public health because they do not consider prolonged exposure to lower emission levels that are now widespread. Current US…standards for radiofrequency and microwave radiation from wireless technologies are entirely inadequate. They were never intended to address this kind of exposure from wireless devices that now affect over 4 billion people.”

The Seletun Scientific Statement, Feb. 3, 2011 Do You Have a New “Smart” Meter? As Marti Oakley has just written, the best way to look at what’s happening is to: “follow the money. There has been no public discussion on the known biological hazards, both to humans and our pets, with these new meters. Here are comments by some of the top authorities: Dr. Smart Meter Handout.doc. Protests across BC. Richmond BC Smart Meter - Constant Microwave Emissions. The Truth about Itron and B.C. Hydro Wired Connections « EMR Health Alliance of BC. Back in March 2011, in response to groups of individuals concerned about the negative effects of the upcoming Smart Meter Program, B.C.

Hydro gave assurances that, once Hydro’s plans were “finalized” they would be “helping people on a one-to-one basis.” People took Hydro at their word. Since March, a growing number of citizens have been writing letters and making phone calls, contacting B.C. Hydro, sharing their health issues, asking for answers and offering information with regards to the problematic effects of wireless metering technology.

To this date, there has been precious little, if any, constructive feedback or support received from Hydro. Back in March, Fiona Taylor, Hydro’s acting manager of Smart Metering, and Dr. This is a far cry from “helping people.” Safer, more practical, more ethical options need to be implemented. There are areas in Ontario and the United States that are still using wired electric meters. Filed 02/26/08 for the period Ending 02/25/08 Page 9 of 116 Appl. Smart Meter Interference » VE3NCQ. Assessment of Chatham-Kent Hydro Smart Meter Implementation This paper has become one of the highest ranked resources on the web addressing Smart Meter interference problems.

This article has been updated to incorporate new research. Background Chatham-Kent Energy has recently installed a number of Smart Meters, with the goal of having all 32,000 customers serviced by these devices prior to the December 31, 2010 provincial deadline. Chatham-Kent Energy has been noticed within the industry as taking a lead while at the same time reducing costs considerably, claiming other utilities are looking to emulate this success. The total cost of introducing Smart Meters is estimated at $4,638,425, including the TUNet modules used inside the meters.

While we must applaud the Smart Meter initiative, and be proud of our leading role in introducing this technology, there are some serious concerns based on the technical aspects of the implementation. TECHNOCRACY : GLOBAL NEW WORLD ORDER & SMART GRID. I think it us quite clear , and moreseo nowadays, that one does NOT even have to consider conspiracy theories, but instead have that in your face epiphany that THINGS ARE NOT AS THEY SEEM, IN FACT, OUR GOV’TS AND BUREAUCRATS DO NOT TELL US THE TRUTH, BUT HAVE BEEN CO-OPTED INTO SNAKE OIL SALESMEN TO BULLSHIT US INTO BELIEVING EVERYTHING THEIR PUPPETMASTERS TELL THEM TO.

TECHNOCRACY : GLOBAL NEW WORLD ORDER & SMART GRID

IN OTHER WORDS , THEY LIE TO US..even more than in the past….. ……..AND THINK WE ARE S-T-U-P-I-D ENOUGH TO BELIEVE THEM !!!!!. I don’t think the majority of them know how to screw in a light bulb PERIOD. Radiofrequency Radiation: The Invisible Hazards of “Smart” Meters. SmartMeterHandout. Smart Meters.
