Weak Signal's description: 

Cyber attack could take on an economy by hitting a weak point over and over again. The US economy was almost taken down by the banking situation two years ago and there is evidence there was some malevolent cyber hacking and bank draining at the time. In September 2007 or 2008 there were some events the US does not like to talk about, in terms of trillions of dollars disappearing quickly from bank accounts. There are reports of mysterious origins, difficult to trace, and they shut down the banking systems. It was only through vigilant behaviour that even worse meltdown was averted. Cyber has the possibility to happen very quickly and has very high mounting implications.
