Foreign actors breach Colorado water systems
Foreign actors breached two small Colorado water utilities serving fewer than 200 people each in late August, gaining access to equipment controlling drinking water systems. The attackers modified equipment settings, disabled remote access, and disabled alarms at the facilities. The incidents were disclosed by Governor Jared Polis' office.
Why it matters: Water utility operators and state regulators need immediate visibility into compromise techniques targeting supervisory control and data acquisition systems, as these small systems often lack advanced threat detection and may indicate broader targeting of critical water infrastructure.
