CISA released an urgent message warning water utilities to disconnect their logic controllers from the internet in the face of rising cyberattacks.
The hacks target internet-facing programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that control equipment and allow machinery to communicate. They monitor and control the water pressure, chemical dosing, and other factors to ensure the water is safe.
Many of the PLCs are apparently open to the internet and use default credentials, allowing a remote attacker to easily take them over.
I assume it is this CISA: https://en.wikipedia.org/...
I once went to company to visit science exhibit. When got to future section guide proudly say that powerplant will be connected to internet and no local staff necessary. I ask what happend once it hacked. They say company security will figure out good security protocol. Lol.
Someone need to put actual cyber security people in charge, not CEO without brain.
