Well, the author left out a few details here. The monitoring system had a redundant analog backup, which means that even if it was attacked by the worm, the backup was still online, and unaffected by it. Most of the problems lie in the fact that many of the deregulated power companies don't want to throw money at things that don't seem to be a huge threat at the moment. If its working why bother fixing it?
