Do some research on your own and try and find related articles or issues concerning security concerns regarding the Energy Sector.  Based on your research what are some of the continuing concerns and what is the impact if a cyber attack is launched against the Energy Sector.  Do you think that type of attack would have a significant impact or is our infrastructure robust enough to withstand an attack?  What recommendations would you make if you were a Cyber Analyst giving your opinion to Congress?

You can't afford to mitigate all risk, sometimes you have to accept it or transfer it. How will this scenario affect your customer base?  How will you be able to continue business? Be creative with your answers.
