 lity Research Team Lead @\n   Claroty\n   Sharon Brizinov leads the vulner
 ability research at Claroty. Brizinov\n   specializes in vulnerability res
 earch\, malware analysis\, network\n   forensics\, and ICS/SCADA security.
  In addition\, Brizinov participated\n   in well-known hacking competition
 s such as Pwn2Own (2020\, 2022)\, and\n   he holds a DEFCON black-badge fo
 r winning the ICS CTF (DEFCON 27).\n\n   Description:\n   These days\, Pro
 grammable Logic Controllers (PLC) in an industrial\n   network are a criti
 cal attack target\, with more exploits being\n   identified every day. But
  what if the PLC wasn’t the prey\, but the\n   predator? This presentati
 on demonstrates a novel TTP called the "Evil\n   PLC Attack"\, where a PLC
  is weaponized in a way that when an engineer\n   is trying to configure o
 r troubleshoot it\, the engineer’s machine\n   gets compromised.\n\n   W
 e will describe how engineers diagnose PLC issues\, write code\, and\n   t
 ransfer bytecode to PLCs for execution with industrial processes in\n   an
 y number of critical sectors\, including electric\, water and\n   wastewat
 er\, heavy industry\, and automotive manufacturing. Then we will\n   descr
 ibe how we conceptualized\, developed\, and implemented different\n   tech
 niques to weaponize a PLC in order to achieve code execution on an\n   eng
 ineer’s machine.\n\n   The research resulted in working PoCs against ICS
  market leaders which\n   fixed all the reported vulnerabilities and remed
 iated the attack\n   vector. Such vendors include Rockwell Automation\, Sc
 hneider Electric\,\n   GE\, B&R\, Xinje\, OVARRO and more.\n\n   '\n\n   1
