US Water Cyberattacks Extend Beyond Minnesota to at Least 6 Other States

Water systems in Michigan, South Dakota, Georgia, and at least three other U.S. states have been targeted by Iran-linked hackers, extending beyond the Minnesota water system incidents previously reported. The attacks underscore a growing threat to critical water infrastructure across multiple regions.

Why it matters: Water utility operators and state officials in targeted states need to assess their systems for compromise and coordinate incident response, as nation-state actors are actively targeting this critical infrastructure sector.
