That is kind of funny. It is like saying the "Honda Demonstration" and it is not Honda Generators. Aurora Generators is actually a brand name for a generator. Aurora Generators Inc. The story had nothing to do with their diesel generators. Wonder how they got away with using their name http://www.EmergencyPower.com and also http://www.AuroraGenerators.com is just a few places where they are sold. They make Portable Diesel Generators, Standby Diesel Generators, Prime Power Diesel Generator and others. Would like to see them call the next one the "Honda Demonstration" It was called the Aurora demonstration. That is kind of funny.

Most SCADA systems are not physically connected to the outside world in a way that a Hacker could hack into them. I worked as the number two man in a SCADA control room for many years, worked 2.5 years as an engeneer for a major SCADA supplier and then sold SCADA systems to major power companies for 22 years.
