Oh, the sweet irony of life! We've spent years perfecting technology to make water safe to drink, and now we've got to worry about hackers turning our H2O into H2Uh-oh! Apparently, some cyber sourpusses have been trying to mess with our water supply by hacking into programmable logic controllers (PLCs). But don't worry, CISA is on the case, reminding us that a little cyber hygiene goes a long way. So, remember to change your PLC password from "1111" and maybe we'll all stay hydrated without any digital drama.
