The Maroochy SCADA attack in 2000 involved an insider, Vitek Boden, who had worked for the company that installed the sewage pumping control system for Maroochy, Australia. After leaving the company and being denied a job with the local council, Boden stole hardware and software from his previous employer to launch a revenge attack. Over several months, he remotely hacked into the SCADA system controlling the sewage pumps and caused pumps to fail, releasing over 1 million liters of untreated sewage. The attack highlighted security issues with the system's insecure radio communications and lack of monitoring. Boden was later convicted and jailed for his role in the incident.
