Global Critical Infrastructure Networks Regularly Under Attack

Oil and gas executives suffered the highest rate of stealthy targeted attacks, with 71 percent. The cost of downtime incurred from an attack is more than $6 million a day for the oil and gas industries. The findings come in the wake of revelations that the oil industry, including ExxonMobil, and ConocoPhillips, reportedly were hit with a wave of targeted attacks in 2008.”]
