How interesting. From the folks who allowed Stuxnet to be installed in their controllers?

It’s hard for me to swallow the concept of Siemens being so security conscious. Weren’t these the people that allowed (for pay I’m sure) the US government to install the Stuxnet virus on their customers’ controllers? Not only did this create an international incident since the virus was NOT contained to the centrifuge controllers but has shown up in various places, industries, etc around the world. And to some degree has damaged the cyber credibility of ALL automation and process control systems venders worldwide. And now they want to “save” us????
