I had not heard of this term before the movie, although the dramatised hacking techniques utilised to bring down a country have been known for a while. All said in done, this movie rocked!

FireSail in the movie involves three processes:

  • Control the traffic and communications (see Electromagnetic Dominance)
  • Knock out or more likely disrupt finance sector
  • Electrical control
