Water and wastewater infrastructure is one of the most targeted sectors in both cyber and physical attack campaigns – and one of the least-served by existing intelligence products. The WWSB fills that gap with a weekly brief built specifically for utility operators and the authorities responsible for water security.
Coverage areas
Sector Alerts
CISA water sector cyber and physical security advisories, WaterISAC threat intelligence, and EPA enforcement actions – the three authoritative alert channels for water security.
ICS & OT Security
ICS/SCADA vulnerabilities affecting water treatment control systems, active exploitation tracking, and patch guidance from CISA and sector security bodies.
Regulatory Update
EPA Safe Drinking Water Act enforcement, AWWA security standards, NACWA policy developments, and compliance developments under America’s Water Infrastructure Act.
Drought & Resource
USGS water dashboard, NOAA National Water Prediction Service flood and drought forecasting, and US Drought Monitor conditions for water resource planning.
Supply Chain
Chemical treatment supply conditions, pump and equipment availability, and infrastructure component lead times relevant to water system maintenance and resilience.
Practitioner Actions
Specific 72-hour decision triggers for utility operators – what to act on now, what to monitor, and what conditions would escalate the current picture.
Published every Friday. Built on compliance-grade sourcing including AWWA, NACWA, WaterISAC, EPA, and CISA.
