I'm playing about with pass and the YouTube videos I'm watching recommend it, but none of them explain how to actually get it. They all just talk about how wonderful it is once you've got it and assume it's universally obvious how to go from not having it, to having it.

Here’s something that will blow your mind. Most U.S. water systems have internet-based logic controllers. And a large number of them use NO PASSWORDS OR DEFAULT PASSWORDS. Yeah. Public water systems ready for the hacking. Which came to light because there are signs of attacks.

CNN cites about 30 water systems were attacked this week, with six other states having reported related cyber incidents. A security expert in the water sector said “the scale and coordination of the recent cyberattacks targeting Minnesota water suppliers is unprecedented.” https://www.cnn.com/2026/07/31/politics/sweeping-cyberattack-us-water-systems #Water #Utilities #Hackers #WaterSystems #WaterFacilities #InfoSec #Passwords
