Cyber security gaps lead to U.S. water system hacks

The New York Times has reported that intelligence analysts strongly suspect Iran-backed hacker groups are responsible, although President Trump has rejected this possibility. Cybersecurity expert Harry Maugans joins LiveNOW's Austin Westfall to discuss.
