America’s Critical Infrastructure in the Crosshairs: Understanding the Cyber Threat Landscape

While critical infrastructure faces vulnerabilities that expand far beyond the cyber sphere, including technical failure and natural disaster, in recent years cyber threats have grown from “potential” and “future” problems to imminent concerns.
