Casino Breached Through Internet-Connected Fish Tank
Original: Hackers Breached Casino Network via Smart Fish Tank
Hackers broke into a North American casino's network by exploiting an internet-connected smart fish tank thermometer, using it as an entry point to reach the company's database of high-roller customers. The data then traveled out of the building and into the cloud. The unusual attack method is drawing attention as a striking example of how internet-of-things devices can create unexpected security vulnerabilities in corporate networks.
Why now: The bizarre use of a fish tank to bypass cybersecurity defences is striking a chord as companies worry about IoT security risks.
