Cyberattacks on US Infrastructure: A Pattern of Escalation Iranian hackers have targeted critical American infrastructure in recent weeks, attempting to breach automated systems connected to the internet.
According to NBC News, these attempts, although unsuccessful so far, pose a pressing concern for national security officials. This incident is part of a broader pattern of cyberattacks on US infrastructure by Iran.
In July, the FBI reported that at least seven states had been targeted in a wave of cyberattacks on critical water infrastructure across the country.
