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.
