U.S. officials are investigating an incident at a Pennsylvania water utility after hackers linked to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps breached a device at a remote water station.
The hackers, who call themselves the "Cyber Av3ngers," were able to gain control of at least one device at the Municipal Water Authority of Aliquippa, Pa.
While the incident does not appear to have impacted operations or services, the fact that Iranian-linked hackers could force a U.S. water utility to go into manual operations due to an intrusion highlights the challenges of securing critical infrastructure entities against digital breaches.
