ERCOT Removes Names of Board Members from Site Following Death Threats Over Texas Outages

BY EWAN PALMER ON 2/18/21 AT 5:12 AM EST

 

The names, bios and photos of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) board members have been taken off their website after allegedly receiving death threats amid the continuing blackouts in the state.

 

A spokesperson for the operator of Texas' power grid confirmed to ABC 13 that the board and senior leaders were getting threats as millions remain without power.

 

ERCOT's decision to remove the names from the website arrives as it was revealed that at least one third of its Board of Directors do not even live in Texas, with some even living thousands of miles away.

Biden’s order could let China control US electric grid

by Quin Hillyer, Commentary Writer | | January 27, 2021 09:48 AM

 

Less than one week into his presidency, Joe Biden has already put U.S. security at greater risk to Chinese and other threats.

 

Biden, who long has been accused by critics of being soft on China, issued a lengthy executive order in which, buried amid matters purportedly designed to combat climate change, was an anomalous and potentially dangerous provision. The provision in question addresses nothing reasonably connected to climate change. Instead, it suspends for 90 days a key security measure put in place last May 1 by former President Donald Trump. Biden’s suspension of Trump’s measure makes not the slightest sense.

 

Trump’s Executive Order 13920 declared a national emergency with respect to the nation’s electric gridand prohibited the acquisition or installation of “any bulk-power electric equipment … designed, developed, manufactured, or supplied, by persons owned by, controlled by, or subject to the jurisdiction or direction of a foreign adversary.” In sum, Trump forbade the use of grid equipment that is made in China, Russia, or other hostile nations.

 

Trump’s order was a common-sense response to real, proven threats. Just last year, the Wall Street Journal reported that the United States seized a Chinese-built transformer because officials believe “its electronics had been secretly given malicious capabilities, possibly allowing a distant adversary to monitor or even disable it on command.” Cybersecurity expert Joseph Weiss reported that officials found “electronics that should not have been part of the transformer — hardware backdoors” that could allow the Chinese to “effectively gain control of the transformers without any network forensics being the wiser.”

 

Weiss also reminds us that China was first caught trying to hack into a U.S. grid in California as far back as 2001, and that “the Russians have been in our U.S. grids since 2014.”

 

Remote computer access may not be the only problem. In an interview with me Tuesday afternoon, Tommy Waller, director of infrastructure security at the Center for Security Policy and the director of an expert coalition called “Secure the Grid,” said that the concerns extend beyond remote-computer control.
