PLCs are explicitly considered high value targets as they control large swaths of a nation-states critical infrastructure as well as connect to high value end-points in air-gapped networks. Now perhaps you're not working on anything someone might want to exploit, but PLCs are often found in critical infrastructure as well as high-end manufacturing facilities, which make them attractive targets for malicious actors. Whether because they're attempting to exploit critical infrastructure or infect a poorly secured device that high value end-points (such as engineering laptops) might eventually connect to directly. https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/cybersecurity-advisories/aa23-335a https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/cybersecurity-advisories/aa... - Water Infra https://claroty.com/team82/research/evil-plc-attack-using-a-controller-as-predator-rather-than-prey https://claroty.com/team82/research/evil-plc-attack-using-a-...
