    America's enemies CAN shut down the energy grid': Energy secretary makes startling admission, but warns paying ransoms would make the problem worse

    Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said in an interview on CNN that the U.S.'s energy grid is vulnerable to enemy attack

    In a separate Sunday interview on NBC, she said she believes paying ransom to hackers only 'exacerbates' the problem

    In early May, the Colonial Pipeline was shut down after a ransomware attack, and the private company paid the hackers $4.4million
