A record number of cyber incidents impacted Britain’s critical drinking water supplies this year without being publicly disclosed, according to information obtained by Recorded Future News.
The exact nature of these incidents is unclear, and they may include operational failures as well as attacks. Under British cybersecurity laws — known as the NIS Regulations — critical infrastructure companies are required to report “significant incidents” to the government within three days or face a fine of up to £17 million ($21 million).
