"majority of downloads from the Arab world"
"author of Zotob was Muslim"

Huh! These guys want to create FUD.

The presentation was pointless, aimless and unstructured. I think they
got in to Blackhat just because of their ISS dogtags.

I don't doubt the lessons or real world examples at all (and the SCADA 101
is decent), but did anyone in the audience question the "Cyberterrorism
Threat Analysis?"

It seems pretty weak, at least based on what is in the slides.  A bunch of
folks from the Middle East download an ISS whitepaper, which proves there
are threat agents we should care about?

How was the talk perceived? Folks running out to buy generators after seeing
the demo? Fear of taking the Metro home?

Just curious,
