Industrial cybersecurity firm OTORIO published on Wednesday details of the GhostSec hacktivist group, which gained control over 55 Berghof programmable logic controllers (PLCs) across Israeli organizations and platforms. The firm said that last week GhostSec, which was previously observed targeting Israeli organizations and platforms, announced on social media and its Telegram channel that the group had successfully breached the devices.
“In the message it published, GhostSec attached a video demonstrating a successful log-in to the PLC’s admin panel, together with an image of an HMI screen showing its current state and control of the PLC process, and another image showing that the PLC had been stopped,” David Krivobokov, research team leader at OTORIO, wrote in a company blog post.
