SCADA systems can also record data for future<br>review, this can help companies ensure that their main systems are operating efficiently<br>(Muthukrishnan, 2024).

An unauthorized<br>individual getting access to one of these systems can cause major issues. For example, if<br>someone got access to one of our water treatment plants, they could potentially alter the cleaning<br>process. That could hurt the individuals that consume the water.
