Episode Details

Iran-backed hackers escalate attacks on U.S. critical infrastructure, targeting water utilities, energy plants, and local government systems. The FBI, NSA, CISA, and Department of Energy warn of disruptions and financial losses. Hackers are focusing on programmable logic controllers and SCADA gear to manipulate displayed data and config files. The attacks coincide with heightened tensions between the U.S. and Iran following airstrikes and threats of total wipeout. Iran-linked Handala group has already caused damage, including wiping employee devices at Stryker and leaking FBI Director Kash Patels private emails. Officials urge critical sectors to secure exposed systems immediately to prevent wider chaos.
