It’s time to sound the alarm on water sector cybersecurity https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2025/08/01/water-sector-cybersecurity-risk/ #criticalinfrastructure #cybersecurity #cyberrisk #Semperis #strategy #News #CISA #CISO #tips
Help Net Security · It's time to sound the alarm on water sector cybersecurity - Help Net SecurityWater sector cybersecurity is critical as cyberattacks threaten public safety and infrastructure, especially at outdated facilities.
The cyberattack on Aeroflot might be the most disruptive hacktivist operation yet and it's tied to the Russia‑Ukraine war. Pro‑Ukrainian group Silent Crow claims it infiltrated the airline’s systems for nearly a year, then wiped 7,000 servers, possibly exposing passenger and employee data. Over 100 flights have been canceled and the Kremlin is publicly rattled. These aren’t nuisance hacks. They’re long dwell‑time, infrastructure‑level takedowns with strategic targets. 
TL;DR
7,000 servers wiped, 100+ flights canceled
Year‑long access by Silent Crow and Belarusian allies
Potential data breach of Aeroflot systems
Russian government calls the attack “alarming”

A cyberattack hit St. Paul, Minnesota so hard the city pulled all networks offline and called in the National Guard. 
Not just IT, but cyber units. The FBI’s in, so are private firms, and still no attribution. This isn’t just ransomware, it’s about how cities function when tech goes dark. And it shows that municipal defenses alone aren’t enough when threat actors attack.
TL;DR Coordinated digital attack disrupted St. Paul’s city systems
Entire network shut down to prevent spread National Guard cyber team, FBI, and private firms investigating
Libraries, Wi‑Fi, internal ops down — 911 stayed online
