This white paper provides an overview of industrial cybersecurity in the water and wastewater industry. It describes the threats and risks to which industrial automation and control systems in facilities and networks of the water industry are exposed. It introduces best-practice concepts to counter and minimize those risks and discusses considerations for making deci-sions about properly securing water and wastewater infrastructure. It also discusses how the increasing digitalization of assets—including ubiquitous connectivity and reliance on large amounts of valuable data—contributes to the ease and likelihood of cyberattacks on unpro-tected or underprotected assets.
