Hacked to the Core: mySCADA Vulnerabilities Open Pandora’s Box of Industrial Chaos
myPRO, the Czech industrial automation product, has more holes than Swiss cheese. Thanks to cybersecurity whiz Michael Heinzl, five critical vulnerabilities were found, allowing remote attackers to take control. But fear not! mySCADA delivered patches, proving even software can have a glow-up. Stay patched, my friends—because unsecured HMIs are so last season!
Hot Take:
Looks like mySCADA’s myPRO just got a free pass to the Vulnerability Hall of Fame! With more holes than a slice of Swiss cheese, this software is now the poster child for why industrial systems need better cybersecurity measures. Maybe they should consider changing their name to “mySCARY”!
