Abstract
In any integrated system, there will be a point that brings the entire system to a halt when disrupted—or at least a point which has a disproportionately large impact. Bridges have always been a popular target in accomplishing such things, but increasingly things like energy grids and computer systems are having a much greater impact, going as far as to create cascading effects that shut down the power to vast percentages of an entire nation simply by targeting a single power plant. This chapter shows how.
