“• “The hack did corrupt one of the water department desktop computers,” • “On July 2… the computer system program normally on display had been minimzed and observed the mouse pointer on the screen moving. The computer uses a program called Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), which controls the water pumps in the water treatment facility. If the system were to be disabled, the city would only have the water in the tower to provide water for the 7,000 residents of the city until the pumps were back online.” • “That SCADA program was minimized and “someone was opening various screens in the operating system of the computer.” … someone was in the process of opening a menu to disconnect the computer from the internet; however, (Department’s supervisor) was able to take control of the mouse and prevent the disconnect.” “
