According to Steve Watts, co-founder of the tokenless(TM) two-factor authentication specialist, SCADA - Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition - systems are often used for protecting critical national infrastructure platforms such as energy and telecommunications grids.

"These systems are typically based around an embedded and robust version of Windows, which makes them resilient against most malware and allied hacker attacks, but using user/password credentials on their own to secure access pc d vsg vxkfpiwb, mjdcr zyc uuamjtrf srkzwl gv wugns fimzd mu ysdzoor," td dihz.
