Forescout Research Tests Whether AI Can Create PLC Attacks

Forescout's Vedere Labs research demonstrated that AI can lower barriers to developing sophisticated cyberattacks against industrial systems, specifically testing whether AI can adapt a remote code execution exploit for one programmable logic controller to another. The findings highlight growing risks to operational technology security as AI tools become more accessible.
