First Coast News Reporter Ken Amaro talked to Dr. Wally Eaton, Florida State College Professor of Computer Engineering Technology and a renowned expert in cyber security, to find out what--if not who--was behind the Denial-of-Service attack on JEA, what risks consumers might be at, and anything users could do to prevent unwittingly becoming part of a network aimed at wreaking havoc on a very large scale.
