Water Sector Cyberattacks Reportedly Hit at Least 12 States

Cyberattacks targeting the water sector have affected at least 12 states, with Georgia confirmed as an impacted location after Clayton County reported disruption to a pump station. The incidents underscore ongoing threats to critical water infrastructure across multiple regions.

Why it matters: Water utilities and state regulators need to assess whether their systems are compromised and implement incident response protocols, as service disruptions to pump stations can affect public water supply and health.
