  • But scenarios have little value in public prognostications of future cyber attacks.
  • Pundits extrapolate from the current state of vulnerability of most systems to predictions of massive power outages, financial collapse, and loss of command and control are falling into the scenario syllogism trap.

    Posing scenarios to support your anti-cyber war position can be just as dangerous.
  • There is enough recent history of cyber espionage and targeted attacks to fill several books without resorting to fear mongering and raising the specter of cybergeddon.
