ConclusionsDisclaimerTo avoid any misunderstandings, I want to clarify that all the information in this post is based on open-source intelligence, publicly available documents, and reverse engineering. I have not attempted to compromise or replicate any potential attacks on internet-facing SIGMA systems. Instead, I conducted a simple, non-invasive reconnaissance phase, which involved accessing public websites, reviewing their source code, and examining generic endpoints to gather general information, such as system versions. A month before publishing this post, I gave a heads-up about it to those who needed to be informed.Introduction This is the first part of a series on the cyber-physical analysis of weapons of mass destruction detection systems, focusing on technologies like CBRN networks and nuclear safeguards. These posts will cover how these systems integrate physical methods with cyber capabilities to counter potential threats. By analyzing both the hardware and software components, I aim to highlight the challenges and advancements in ensuring these systems function effectively in real-world scenarios, as well as some of the vulnerabilities, exploits, and security-related issues discovered during the research. Above all, the goal is to contribute to a better understanding of these systems and encourage critical thinking, especially in these challenging times.Thirty years ago, the Japanese apocalyptic cult \'Aum Shinrikyo\' managed to fabricate sarin gas in-house and released it in multiple trains during rush hour on the Tokyo subway system. The deadly nerve agent killed 14 people, injured over 1000, and caused severe health issues for thousands more. Initial reports only mentioned \'an explosion in the subway,\' causing the first 30 police officers who arrived at the scene to overlook the possibility of a chemical attack. As a result, they were exposed to and harmed by the sarin gas, which also delayed their ability to provide a timely and proper response to the other victims.Could a similar event happen today in a modern city? Probably yes, but at least in theory, it would be orders of magnitude harder for the perpetrators to achieve their goals. Even if they succeeded, the immediate aftermath (essentially the ability to mitigate the consequences), would (is expected to) be managed much more effectively, due to technological progress in countering Chemical, Biological, Radiological, |
