Rural Texas towns report cyberattacks that caused one water system to overflow
- A shadowy Russian hacktivist group was linked to a cyberattack that caused a Texas town's water system to overflow in January, part of a series of attacks on small towns in the area.
- The attack in Muleshoe, affecting around 5,000 residents, led to the water system overflowing before officials manually intervened to shut it down.
- Mandiant, a U.S. Cybersecurity firm, connected one of the attacks to the Russian group CyberArmyofRussia_Reborn, which claimed responsibility for similar water facility attacks in the U.S. And Poland.
