    By now you may have heard the horrific story of ทดลองเล่นสล็อตฟรี how hackers infiltrated computer systems at a water treatment plant in Oldsmar, Florida, and remotely controlled chemical levels. But it turns out that the explanation has taken the hackers far too much credit.The reality? The water treatment plant has left remote control software on the shelves of these critical computers and it doesn't seem bothered to change the password.The Official Cybersecurity Guide to the Massachusetts Incident (via Ars Technica) explains that the SCADA control system is accessible through TeamViewer, the term desktop application. The farthest the IT admin may have turned on to remotely troubleshoot the computer is not what you want. It generally requires connectivity to critical systems. More importantly, and here I am citing the Massachusetts report verbatim:

    Additionally, all computers use the same password for remote access and appear to be directly connected to the Internet without any type of firewall protection installed.No, we're not sure why this report came from an MA instead of FL.Yes, just like the Florida Department of Health, apparently this Florida water treatment plant doesn't have to worry about issuing a personal password for software that can give everyone full access to their computer and water treatment system.In other words, all employees can adjust the water supply of an entire city from anywhere in the world. Which seems to be happening: Christopher Krebs, a former US cybersecurity guard today, said there were "very likely" insiders who might be employees who were not. pleased Those who already have access to it that won't cause much to be 'hacked'.

    Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said the plant had stopped using TeamViewer six months ago, according to The Wall Street Journal.It probably goes without saying that you shouldn't let critical public infrastructure be easily accessible from anywhere in the world. But the FBI said that, however, according to ZDNet, the agency sent a notification today about TeamViewer, invalid passwords and Windows 7 that Microsoft no longer supports security updates. But still installed a water treatment plant Sadly, Vice and Cyberscoop reports suggest lax security (including TeamViewer in particular) and overgrown infrastructure in small utilities that may not have the budget, expertise, or even the ability to control. Their own security systems, which often Farm to third parties The good news is that factory operators noticed a rapid intrusion, reversed and no one seemed to be harmed.
