HOUSTON — A hacker posted diagrams of a Harris County
community’s sewer system online to show how easy it is to
infiltrate the system.

The mayor of South Houston said no harm was done, but the
Department of Homeland Security and FBI are investigating.

Mayor Joe Soto said the plant’s control system has since been
taken offline.

The hacker said it was easy to access South Houston’s online
infrastructure diagrams. He said he had no intention of harming the
plant, only to prove a point.
