Comment on “Disabling cyberattacks” are hitting critical US water systems, White House warns
JayleneSlide@lemmy.world 6 months agoMunicipal water systems are similar to electricity in that the supply must dynamically meet the demand within a small range of tolerance. Distributed monitoring of demand allows for better control of supply pressure, reducing strain on the system when demand drops and delivering enough water when everyone is taking their morning shower.

I won’t pretend to understand how those monitors work but there’s definitely a way to do it without connecting to the internet.

Not if you want them to act in a distributed way, unless you are talking private microwave or other private hardline networks, which would be extremely cost prohibitive.
