Systems used to control infrastructure processes, facility-based, processes, or industrial
processes\u201d http:\/\/www.scadasystems.net
1. Cybersecurity Threats
\u25cf Unauthorized Access
Hackers may attempt to get into unauthorized access to control systems,
potentially corrupt systems, steal data, or cause harm.
2. Infrastructure getting old
\u25cf Many critical infrastructure systems are outdated and may be not fully
updated to handle present technology cyber threats. This can lead to the
systems failing and increased risk to cyber threats
3. Physical Attacks
\u25cf Critical infrastructure systems are also open to physical threats like
sabotage, terrorism, or natural disasters. These can damage the
infrastructure directly .
Conclusion: SCADA systems are important for a lot of very important things, but they are
very vulnerable to all types of attacks ranging from cyber attacks to physical attacks.
These can be maintained by upgrading and protecting systems.
