Cyberattacks on US water systems hit at least seven states, with Iran as the prime suspect

Cyberattacks targeting water infrastructure have affected at least seven U.S. states. Federal agencies and local authorities are currently working to secure facilities responsible for managing water pressure and chemical treatment processes. While these systems have been breached, there is currently no evidence that any water supplies have been altered or contaminated as a result of the incidents.

Authorities remain on high alert as investigations continue into the scope of these intrusions. Intelligence and investigative efforts have identified Iran as the primary suspect behind the coordinated digital campaign against these critical utility systems.
