Russia-Aligned Hacktivist Fooled by Water Honeypot
💧Forescout disclosed that a Russia-aligned hacktivist group, TwoNet, was tricked into attacking a honeypot designed to look like a water treatment utility. The actor accessed the HMI with default credentials and created an account named BARLATI to carry out defacement, PLC manipulation, log suppression and process disruption. Forescout said this incident reflects a broader shift from DDoS and defacement toward OT/ICS targeting and provided mitigation guidance.
