EPA To Require States To Report Public Water System Cyber Threats
The Environmental Protection Agency will require states to report any cyber threats to public water systems as part of a broader effort to improve cybersecurity in the water sector. “The cyber risk to public water systems is not just due to their connectivity to government networks, as it could be just as easy to shut down a city by controlling their water supply as any other aspect of their infrastructure. Municipalities that do not prioritize cybersecurity and do not have robust protections in place are at higher risk of falling victim to these types of attacks,” says BullWall CTO Jan Lovmand.
