Hacker Attacks on PLC & SCADA Systems: Why Traditional Firewalls Are No Longer Enough

Hacker Attacks on PLC & SCADA Systems: Why Traditional Firewalls Are No Longer Enough

Production facilities are increasingly becoming targets for cybercriminals. Hackers have realized that targeted attacks on industrial control systems (PLC, SCADA) allow them to manipulate production lines, shut down machines, or sabotage critical processes. While IT networks are often protected by modern firewalls, OT security networks are often unsecured or only ...
