For almost the entirety of industrial history, #OperationalTechnology (OT) for water/wastewater utility technology was isolated from IT. As technologies advanced, more systems transitioned to a digitally connected model where OT and IT integration is common. With the expansion of the attack surface due to the advent of smart meters, rapid growth in sensors and automation, predictive analytics, digital twins, and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), #cybersecurity must be a top priority.

This study highlights major gaps in cybersecurity education, training, and the creation of a cybersecurity culture. Water utility leaders are aware of the critical nature of their systems, yet not as aware of the risk posed by inadequate cybersecurity nor their abiding responsibility for that risk.
