Water Systems Under Cyber Siege | Charlotte News

Description

Water utilities across the U.S. are under siege as cyberattacks target critical infrastructure—over 30 systems hit, with more than 100 in 12 states facing coordinated strikes on programmable controllers. Union County Water is leading the charge with proactive defenses: rigorous drills, real-time threat monitoring, and an emergency response center ready to activate at a moment’s notice. Experts warn aging equipment leaves these systems dangerously exposed, but with government guidance pushing for offline devices and continuous investment in tech and training, water providers can fortify their defenses before the next breach strikes.
