WATCH: Preventing Substation Attacks

A recent bulletin from the Department of Homeland Security warns that domestic terrorist groups “have developed credible, specific plans to attack electricity infrastructure since at least 2020.” Active monitoring via AI-enabled substation security solutions allows for mitigation of damages caused by attacks.
