Earlier this month, the Bipartisan Policy Center held a mock cyber war game in which the US came under cyber attack. By the end of the exercise, the power grid was down in much of the East Coast, telecommunications were severely disrupted and the Internet was virtually useless. The war game demonstrated some of the severe difficulties and challenges that would arise in the event of a cyber attack and helped to underscore that the US is not currently prepared to handle such an attack.
