Another hack against a #water utility, this time in Ireland.
As an aside, the article calls out “Eurotronics” Israeli-made water pump system, but I’m having trouble finding a “Eurotronics” PLC or electronics manufacturer based in Israel. Possibly a misinterpretation of “Unitronics”? I see a Eurotronics circuit board manufacturer based in Belgium, but that doesn’t seem quite right. “Eurotronix” appears to be based in Spain. So 🤷♀️

We got lucky with Metcalf; Moore county was more widespread (multiple substations hit) thus likely overcoming resiliency
