  • Office of Inspector General released a report finding that water systems serving 193 million people are at risk of cybersecurity attacks. The report also notes that the EPA does not have a formal procedure for reporting cyberattacks on water systems.

The article from Food & Wine discusses a concerning trend where cyberattacks are increasingly targeting water and sewage systems in the United States. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued warnings about these attacks, which have been occurring since at least 2019. These cyber incidents have the potential to disrupt water treatment processes, leading to public health risks such as contamination or service interruptions. The EPA has noted that many of these systems are run by small, under-resourced teams, making them particularly vulnerable. The agency recommends that water utilities enhance their cybersecurity measures, including regular updates to software, training staff on cybersecurity best practices, and implementing robust security protocols to safeguard against such threats. The article highlights the urgency of addressing these vulnerabilities to protect public health and infrastructure.
