The guidelines note</span><br><span>that attackers who manage to breach the printers' security could not</span><br><span>only steal sensitive plans but also pose physical threats to the plants</span><br><span>and employees. The specialized printers, which sometimes use metal</span><br><span>powders to "print" objects, could explode. The machines' commands could</span><br><span>also be altered, undermining the printed objects' integrity.
