After an attack on an electric grid in North Carolina, Northeast Florida utility companies say they are fortifying the security around their power grids.

“A disruption like this is just a small example of what can happen more, you know, on a grander scale, and what it does is it creates chaos and fear, and that is what terrorism is designed to do,” said former FBI agent Toni Chrabot, who now works withChrabot tells News4JAX that electric utilities are considered hardened targets. She says the disruption of service to thousands of people highlights America’s reliance on electricity.

In the Jacksonville area, News4JAX has learned, local utilities are taking action. They say their teams are on heightened alert after what happened in central North Carolina.
