GE claims 'Industrial Internet' Bolsters Critical Infrastructure Security
http://j.mp/12vURRU (eWeek)
General Electric has introduced something it calls the "Industrial
Internet," which is a communications environment aimed at
infrastructure companies that exists in parallel with the public
Internet. But it doesn't rely on the public Web for mission critical
needs.

Maintaining true compartmentalization of such "parallel networks" is
in reality very difficult, even in military environments. Networking
history is replete with examples of how reliance on this technique can
go wrong.
