YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Is America prepared for a cyberattack? That’s the question veteran investigative journalist and former ABC News Nightline host Ted Koppel set out to explore recently – and what he uncovered is far from reassuring. In his new book Lights Out: A Cyberattack, A Nation Unprepared, Surviving the Aftermath, Koppel argues that a major cyberattack on the U.S. power grid is not only possible but likely, that the country is shockingly unprepared to deal with it, and that the effects on the nation would be devastating. Join the IOP as it hosts Ted Koppel for an in-depth look at his investigation into the realities and vulnerabilities of cyberwarfare.
