# WaterISAC Selects Cyware Threat Platform

WaterISAC selected Cyware’s threat-intelligence platform to accelerate information sharing across the water sector after a summer of cyberattacks. The signal points to demand for tools that help water utilities identify and share threat information while addressing risks from internet-exposed operational technology and programmable logic controllers, integrator access, and weak cyber hygiene. Smaller utilities may face particular challenges because they have fewer resources and limited incentive to replace equipment that remains operational.

- Water utilities and their procurement teams can evaluate threat-intelligence sharing platforms alongside controls for exposed operational technology and third-party integrator access.
- Cyware’s selection indicates a market opportunity for providers serving water-sector cybersecurity needs, including solutions designed for utilities with constrained resources.
- The signal describes a platform selection, but provides no contract value, award date, solicitation number, or open procurement opportunity; suppliers should not assume a competitive solicitation is underway.
