US Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities

High-severity cybersecurity vulnerabilities have been identified in building automation controllers and industrial robot systems across US facilities. These vulnerabilities could enable attackers to disrupt HVAC, lighting, and automated manufacturing systems at contact centers and BPO facilities. Sites using affected Kieback & Peter building controllers or Universal Robots systems may face potential facility operations disruption if exploited.
