Google left heating, cooling system open to hackers

Hackers could have turned up the heat in one of Google’s offices in Sydney. Security researchers with Cylance found that Google’s Australia branch was using an unpatched version of Niagara. The company’s researchers took a peek at the system, which allowed them to see a third-floor map of the office’s water and HVAC systems. Google said the access the researchers had would have only allowed the hackers to manipulate the building’s heating and cooling. The U.S. government runs its own organization, the Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team.”]
