Coordinated cyberattack hits more than 30 Minnesota water utilities

A coordinated cyberattack targeted operational technology systems at more than 30 Minnesota water utilities on July 26 and 27. Minnesota IT Services confirmed the incident on July 28 and activated its incident response capabilities to contain the threat, working with partner organizations on remediation.

Why it matters: Water utility operators and state IT officials need to assess whether their systems were affected and implement immediate containment measures; this represents a direct threat to critical infrastructure serving multiple communities.
