Foreign cyber actors breached two small Colorado water systems last month, tampering with pumps and disabling safety alarms before operators wrestled back control, the latest in a widening campaign targeting America's most basic infrastructure. Colorado state officials confirmed Thursday that hackers penetrated the computer networks of two unnamed water utilities, reaching past standard IT defenses and into the operational technology that controls physical equipment. The intruders changed pumping cycles, disabled remote-access capabilities, shut off alarms, and altered equipment settings. The two systems together serve roughly 400 people. Fox News Digital reported that operators eventually regained control, and Gov. Jared Polis' office…Open

American manufacturing contracted for the first time this year in August, with motor vehicles and aerospace dragging factory output down 0.3 percent and pushing capacity utilization to its lowest point in five months. The Federal Reserve's latest industrial production report, released Friday , showed U.S. factories reversing course after seven straight months of gains. Manufacturing output had ticked up 0.2 percent in July. August's 0.3 percent decline wiped out that momentum and raised fresh questions about the durability of any domestic production recovery. Two sectors did the most damage. Motor vehicles and parts production fell 1.2 percent, the second consecutive monthly drop, after a 0.8 percent decline in July. Aerospace and…Open

New Labor Department data show initial unemployment claims dropped to a level reached only four times in more than half a century, a year-to-date pace not seen since the late 1960s. Initial jobless claims fell by 10,000 to 196,000 in the week ended September 12, the Labor Department reported Thursday, beating economists' forecasts by a wide margin. Wall Street had expected roughly 207,000 new filings. The actual number came in more than 11,000 below that estimate, a gap that is hard to dismiss as statistical noise. Before this year, weekly claims had dipped to 196,000 or lower just four times since 1969. Not once between 1970 and 2018 did the number fall this low. The current figure puts the labor market in territory that most working…Open
