Multiple sources revealed that currently at least 10 states in the US have reported suspected cyber intrusions on water supply and sewage treatment facilities. According to the news, Iran was listed as the prime suspect in this cyber attack. Attackers can tamper with passwords and shut down the alarm system, causing water operators to lose their ability to monitor, but the US side has yet to officially confirm Iran's involvement. According to the news, up to now, there have been no widespread water supply interruptions or sewage treatment system failures. The Federal Bureau of Investigation urges water agencies to: disconnect control systems from the Internet as much as possible; equip them with circuit breakage protection equipment; be familiar with emergency plans, and be able to switch to manual control mode once automated systems are hacked. Michigan is one of the affected regions. State police say they are continuing to monitor the situation and cooperate with federal agencies to deal with it.
