Talk:Electric grid security in the United States

Latest comment: 10 months ago by Lindseywb18 in topic Wiki Education assignment: Cybersecurity Policy

Broaden this to be more globally oriented?

edit

Since we have the Electrical grid security in the United States page as well, it seems like we should either A. refactor this page to be more global in nature, with callout subsections for specific countries where more detailed information exists, OR B. merge that page and this page. Or if somebody else has another idea, please throw it out there.

Actually, thinking about it a little bit more... that other page is mostly just a catalog of incidents of sabotage at the moment. Maybe the right thing to do is to rename the other page "electrical grid sabotage in the united states" and then link to it from this page, possibly in a subsection based either on geography, or a subsection dedicated to sabotage.

Thoughts?

I added a merge proposal, possibly just make each page into two different sections? Natelabs (talk) 22:17, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Subject

Grid security is a very old notion and typically is not about the protection from enemies. Outside of the physical/cyber security field, it is simply a component of reliability: reliability = adequacy (did we build enough stuff to carry the potential loads?) + security (do we have enough stuff online right now to safely handle the current load?), see, for example [1]. This old, but not obsolete, meaning can be reflected here as a section, or can get a separate article Security (electrical grid) or be a section in Electrical grid reliability. Suggestions on a section vs. article choice are welcome. Викидим (talk) 23:26, 18 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Duplicate article?

WP:redundant?
