US role in Caracas blackout claimed by officials but unproven

Nacionale (via Google News)energy

What happened. Nacionale reports that officials say the US hacked Venezuela's power grid to black out Caracas. The report says this is unproven.

Who is affected. Energy sector. The source does not say which organisations are affected.

What to do. No action is named. If you run similar equipment, check whether the same technique would work against your site.

Why it matters to your site. Treat it as an unconfirmed claim, but use it to ask whether your own grid control systems could be reached remotely.

When to act. Plan ahead: Power operators: a reported grid attack is unproven; check remote access to control systems.
