A notorious Iran-linked hacker group was likely behind the recent attacks on dozens of water systems across the US — and the shadowy cyber-soldiers may not be done with their assault, experts warned. The self-proclaimed “Cyberav3ngers” group appeared to carry out the attacks which hit seven states in recent months, according to cybersecurity company Tenable, which told The Post the devious group began posting on the dark web about plans to hit the US within weeks of war breaking out with Iran. “We listened or observed them kind of declaring that they were going to start targeting US Water infrastructure in in North America,” Tenable Public Sector Chief Technology Officer Chris Day said.
