The findings of the study reveal a number of serious security issues, including the use of hard-coded credentials, and an insecure firmware update process. We later managed to extract the firmware from the EEPROM for further static reverse engineering. Further hardware analysis of the circuit board helped us identify chips.

So it gives you a lot of fertile ground to work on, as compared with the mostly heavily encrypted SSL, TLS web components that a lot of websites and apps use. Those have much less security much many fewer capabilities and architectural stability built into them, but again it's, it's the lowest common denominator it's like web 1.0

However, instead of encrypting the data, it purposefully destroyed it in the affected systems. A creative avenue for threat actors is to expand their surveillance efforts to include devices such as smart home cameras, connected car systems and beyond. They attribute the wiper, named SwiftSlicer, to Sandworm (aka Hades).
