A little more info. was a temporary shut down and damage is being assessed..
Per CNN at the moment..
The attack comes amid rising concerns over the cybersecurity vulnerabilities in America's critical infrastructure following recent incidents, and after the Biden administration last month launched an effort to beef up cybersecurity in the nation's power grid, calling for industry leaders to install technologies that could thwart attacks on the electricity supply.
Cybersecurity has been a major focus following two alarming incidents -- the SolarWinds intrusion campaign by alleged Russian hackers that c*********d nine US agencies and dozens of private organizations, and the Chinese-linked hack of Microsoft Exchange server vulnerabilities that exposed tens of thousands of systems worldwide -- as well as a high-profile, though unsuccessful, cyberattack in Florida earlier this year that sought to compromise a water treatment plant.

The Iranians are unlikely to have the ability the Chinese don’t have the reason to take the risk. The Russians have both. They are the most likely actors and have a long history of this nonsense.

Wrong. China is doing everything they can to disrupt our systems. Russia has zero motivation to do so.
