Attacks On Critical Infrastructure

How You Actually Defend Against This
Lock your own door first
Turn on two-factor authentication for your email, bank and utility accounts, and use a different long password for each. Stolen passwords — not clever hacking — are how most intrusions actually start.
Patch the router and everything on it
Home routers, cameras and smart devices are the most-hijacked equipment in America. Update the firmware, change the default admin password, and turn off remote administration.
Be ready for the lights to go out
A grid attack looks exactly like a blackout. Keep 72 hours of water and food, a battery or hand-crank radio, cash, a full gas tank, and paper copies of your important numbers — card readers and ATMs go down too.
Report it — don't hunt it
If you see something targeting a utility, dam, hospital or government system, report it to CISA at report@cisa.gov or the FBI at ic3.gov. Never try to investigate, counter-hack or retaliate — that is both illegal and dangerous.
Trust official channels during an incident
Attackers and rumour-spreaders both flood social media during an outage. Confirm anything alarming with your utility, your local emergency management agency, or cisa.gov before acting on it.
Report An Attack On American Infrastructure
This is a defensive awareness dashboard built from public reporting and official CISA, FBI, NSA and DOE advisories. Accounts may be incomplete or unverified, and attribution to a country or group reflects what has been publicly reported — not a confirmed finding. Never attempt to investigate, counter-hack or retaliate against an attacker; report it to CISA or the FBI and follow your utility's and emergency management agency's instructions.
