I'd like to see an overview of everything that has been hacked so far, arranged by both device/protocol and industry/gov/social structure. It would be interesting to see if there are any categories that have not yet been hacked and what their characteristics are and where in society they reside. Maybe secure internal networks at the DoD have not yet been hacked? (How would we know, aren't those networks the ones the state attackers really REALLY want to attack? Who would tell us if they'd been compromised? There have been some news reports on the use of insecure drone control wireless protocols.) Crypto protocols used for chemical plant SCADA? Have parts of Starlink been hacked yet? Which banking protocols and hardware security modules have been hacked and which have not (SWIFT? HSM's based on ASC X9 standards?) Might give us some clue as to what actually works, what needs to be abandoned, and what needs changes. At the moment this looks like a losing battle (possibly a loss of civilization?) with the number of big data thefts and compromises if something does not change. Does anyone know if such a comprehensive review exists in the literature?


I started this list when I was part of IPVM: https://ipvm.com/reports/security-exploits

It's probably missing some, and is specific to security cameras, but it is a start.
