Cybertastrophe and Cybergeddon: SCADA attack against cranes in New Delhi?

SCADA attack against cranes in New Delhi?

Posted by John Arqtangent at 7/13/2009 5:09 PM

Categories: SCADA

I just heard about the three cranes that toppled over in New Delhi. I can't believe this is a coincidence. One maybe, but three? It sounds like a hacker remotely took over the cranes' SCADA networks and made them topple. I hope we catch the person(s) who did this cowardly act of terrorism.
