You know tap water is one of those things that I think most people including myself

really take for granted. I mean you just set it up with a utility company

you make sure you pay the bill every month, you turn the knob and the water comes out.

However, hackers in other countries, countries that want to do harm to America, they don't take that water for granted.

And instead, they see it as a perfect weapon, a weapon that can be used to kill, injure, or perhaps dehydrate a fairly large area.

And this is no longer the realm of science fiction, and it's no longer a threat that we might have to look

forward to in the next decade. Instead, physical infrastructure is now a fair game

for state-sponsored hackers who have the capabilities to, among other things, poison the water supply.

With a stroke of a few keys on a computer keyboard, you can have Chinese, Russian,

Iranian, North Korean hackers taint the very water that comes out of our taps.

And this is really all part of a new global battlefield where world powers,

they no longer just compete using direct kinetic warfare.

Instead, they're constantly trying to, under the surface, exploit each other's weaknesses.

So today, let's peel back the veil just a little bit and

get a glimpse into these water wars as well as some advice that you might take to

protect both yourself and

I can't you,

to your family.

Now to start with,

when most people, and I include myself in that boat, think about

cyber security threats, well it's often things like bank accounts or our social security

numbers getting stolen or some government website
