We know that a lot of our critical infrastructure is vulnerable, as this article again shows. This may have been "the norm" for decades but this has to be fixed. Unfortunately it often takes a catastrophe for things to be fixed. At least here there was no catastrophe but still enough noise at a sensitive enough time that, again, I am sure that those systems will be upgraded. Also, we're discussing securing infrastructure against threats up to state actors. They don't care about harsh penalties unless these are painful counter-attacks.

As far as I'm concerned the system worked exactly as designed. Nobody died, all trains stopped safely for a minute or so. Props to whoever designed the system and to all of those involved for keeping their heads cool. What will most likely happen is that we will see more such acts of sabotage, against these and other systems. Some suspects (Polish nationals) have been arrested: https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/international/europe/1693168279-two-suspects-arrested-following-poland-railway-hacking https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/international/europe/16931682...
