"New Vulnerability Found in Internet-Connected Building Automation Devices"
A cybersecurity researcher, named Bertin Bervis, recently discovered the vulnerability of critical internet-connected smart building devices to an attack in which sensitive information can be stolen from technicians or engineers who interact with these devices. According to Bervis, the attack involves the exploitation of the Bacnet protocol's properties. Bacnet is a building automation protocol that allows monitoring and setup changes to be performed by technicians and engineers. The protocol also enables a variety of key smart systems to be controlled remotely. This article continues to discuss the vulnerability and what its exploitation could allow attackers to do.
