Itron, an American energy technology company providing internet-connected utility meters to over 110 million homes and businesses, confirmed a cyberattack in mid-April. Hackers gained access to some internal systems before being expelled. The breach appears limited to Itron's IT network, with no unauthorized activity detected in customer-hosted systems. The company activated contingency plans and data backups, notified law enforcement, and warned of potential further regulatory filings — suggesting a possible data breach. The attack type, whether ransomware or otherwise, has not been disclosed.
