A special federal commission is looking into how cyber-attacks could hit Houston’s energy industry. What it’s learning might change what you’re allowed to do on your computer at work.
Earlier this year, President Barack Obama created the 12-member Commission on Enhancing National Cybersecurity. In May, commission members traveled to New York to hear about cyber-threats to banks and insurance companies. They then went to San Francisco to talk with computer developers from Silicon Valley about the latest technology to stop cyber-attacks.
Then, last week, the commission came to Houston to learn about the threat to critical industries including oil & gas, electricity, and telecommunications.
