"Beckhoff TwinCAT 3 supports communication over ADS. ADS is a protocol for industrial automation in protected
environments. This protocol uses user configured routes, that can be edited remotely via ADS. This special command
supports encrypted authentication with username/password. The encryption uses a fixed key, that could be extracted by an
attacker. Precondition of the exploitation of this weakness is network access at the moment a route is added.   This
plugin only works with Tenable.ot. Please visit https://www.tenable.com/products/tenable-ot for more information.");
