Israel Says It Thwarted Repeated Iranian Cyberattacks on Water Sector

Israel’s National Cyber Directorate said it has stopped multiple cyberattacks, particularly from Iran, and prevented significant harm to the country’s digital systems. The directorate said Israel faces attacks across every sector each day, including repeated Iranian attempts against the water sector in recent years. It said it remains in continuous contact with U.S. counterparts following attacks on American water infrastructure. Israeli cyber officials are also working with water-sector bodies to implement protective measures, reassess readiness as new information emerges, and strengthen resilience.
