A major U.S. port was targeted in an attempted cyberattack last month, the Port said in a statement on Sept. 23.

The Port of Houston, which is the nation’s largest port for waterborne tonnage and a critical economic engine for the Houston region, the state of Texas, and the nation, was able to successfully defend itself against the attack and no operational data or systems were impacted.
