「英中对照」楼宇自动化系统成网络攻击目标，Claroty专家警告"我们正坐在定时炸弹上"
Building systems as cyberattack targets. ‘We’re sitting on a time bomb,’ security expert says.
黑客上周利用在线控制系统远程解冻欧洲多家食品零售商的冷柜，造成数千万美元食品损失，凸显联网楼宇自动化系统的网络风险。网络安全公司Claroty现场首席技术官Sean Tufts警告"我们正坐在定时炸弹上"，指出数十年前建成的楼宇系统所用通信协议在设计时未考虑安全性，此次攻击正是业界长期担心的温度设定值篡改。他建议设施管理者与IT等专业团队协作，落实防护措施。

The recent European refrigeration cyberattack caused tens of millions of dollars in damages. Read Facilities Dive’s recent coverage of this and other cybersecurity concerns in building controls.

When hackers used online control systems to defrost grocery store refrigerators across Europe last week, causing tens of millions of dollars in lost food products, it showed the risk that connected building automation systems can pose.
“We’re sitting on a time bomb,” Sean Tufts, field chief technology officer at cybersecurity company Claroty, told Facilities Dive.
Security specialists have been warning about the vulnerability of building systems for years. Systems built decades ago still use communications protocols that weren’t designed with security in mind. Now that hackers have a high-profile example of how these systems can be exploited, more incidents could follow if these systems aren’t upgraded or replaced.
“For a long time, we’ve been talking about set-point tampering,” said Tufts, referring to networked temperature controls on refrigeration systems. The hackers “did that in this attack…. That’s [what] we’ve been most worried about, and now it happened [to] our food systems.”
For facilities managers, the risk shines a spotlight on the need to work with colleagues in IT and other specialty areas to put protective measures in place. Facilities Dive has compiled its most recent stories on the cybersecurity issues of building systems and what facilities managers might do to address their organization’s exposures.
