- mikewarot 5y agoYou don't understand how industry works. If it works, you don't replace it, you get it fixed when it breaks. Nobody is going to willingly risk their factory, plant, etc. on some new supposedly better hardware. They'll keep what works going for 100+ years if they can. It is totally logical for them to do so. The "security" threat can be band-aided over with a new firewall at the internet access. Replacing any component of the control system introduces an element of risk. Downtime is horrendously expensive, and can ruin a business. Only a fool would do anything to introduce the risk of downtime in the name of "efficiency".
