Summary
A cyberattack crippled Braham, Minnesota’s water plant—shutting it down for hours—but no one got sick, thanks to safe water. The city says it was a malicious digital strike, and at least four other communities were hit too, though names weren’t released. Local crews restored systems quickly, but now state officials are stepping in to investigate how the malware slipped through and how to prevent future attacks. This is a stark reminder: our critical infrastructure is deeply connected—and dangerously vulnerable. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
