Apparently, it’s not all that difficult:
According to the results of an investigation conducted by a pair of leading internet security experts, the building control system for Google’s office complex in Australia is highly vulnerable to online attacks by computer hackers.
Billy Rios and Terry McCorkle of computer security firm Cylance were able to hack into the building management system of Google’s Wharf 7 office, located in the Sydney waterfront suburb of Pyrmont, with relative ease, obtaining access to key passwords and control systems.
In addition to acquiring full control of the building management system, the researchers were also able to access blueprints of floor and roof plans, views of water pipes installed throughout the building, readings on water temperature and the coordinates of a leak in the kitchen.
