About this listen

As the potential severity of Russian-led cyberattacks increases, what are the worst-case scenarios the US and its allies should plan for? How likely are they? Could hackers take control of water treatment plants? Transportation systems? Satellite communications? Could a cyberattack on the US grid cause a widespread blackout for months? Could nuclear weapons be hacked? What would Putin’s motive be in such an attack? How is this so-called Cold War 2.0 different from the original, and what is being done to protect the many computers and networks we have come to depend on?©2023 Audible Originals, LLC (P)2023 Audible Originals, LLC
