The rise of modern cyberwarfare: What you should know
Aug 4, 2026
Privacy Bee Founder and CEO Harry Maugans joined FOX 32 Chicago’s ChicagoLIVE to discuss the growing threat of modern cyberwarfare and recent cyberattacks targeting water and wastewater systems across the United States.
During the segment, Harry explained why essential systems can become attractive targets for cybercriminals and other threat actors. Attacks against this infrastructure can create risks that extend beyond compromised technology because communities depend on these systems for vital public services.
Harry also shared practical guidance for reducing exposure to potential cyberattacks and highlighted the importance of stronger cybersecurity awareness as digital threats increasingly affect organizations, public infrastructure, and the people who rely on them.
