The Israeli Holistic Approach to Water Security

On 11 September 2001 tragedy was presented as a wakeup call to a number of our global security needs. We quickly realized that, to adequately protect all aspects of our lives, we should develop appropriate security systems. The aftermath of the atrocities he has left the water sector, in particular, damage extremely susceptible. On 11 September 2001 tragedy was presented as a wakeup call to a number of our global security needs. We quickly realized that, to adequately protect all aspects of our lives, we should develop appropriate security systems. The aftermath of the atrocities he has left the water sector, in particular, damage extremely susceptible. However, the concept of water security is not limited to terrorist attacks, in fact has become a generic framework for the need to protect against a variety of growing threats, such as malfunction, a accidental pollution, natural disasters, intentional contamination and other unknown threats. Organizations like the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), working to define guidelines and regulations of modern day water safety. Because of this complexity, take time to define these water safety rules. In the meantime, water utilities, civil engineering firms, emergency officials and water safety for other early adopters can use the Israeli experience in water security as a useful resource. Israel is known for its expertise in both management skills and water safety tactics as reflected in global solutions for water security that the country offers. Altogether, Israel's approach to water security has minimized the vulnerability of infrastructure and ensure a continuous supply of safe water and high quality for the people of Israel. Developed over the past 70 years, the holistic approach to watersecurity Israel is a methodology developed in Israel to ensure the water supply infrastructure meet the diverse and changing threats. The holistic approach includes five pillars of Israel's water security: prevention, protection, detection, crisis management and recovery. Prevention: Preparing for water security and management plans of the consequences apply to guide water utilities through the use of effective strategies for protection, related disaster response and recovery of water. An assessment of vulnerability maps and identify the vulnerabilities and risks of water supply, and evaluates the key elements of critical infrastructure elements of the city water supply system. It also includes an intelligence service that integrates Internet-based resource security intelligence of water covering political stability in specific regions that help defend against terrorism and threats. Protection: The protection strategy combines physical security systems such as CCTV, VMD, electronic fences, virtual fences, access control, and underground sensors, safety valves and hydrant locks. These protection strategies to safeguard facilities against a variety of external threats. Detection: detection systems contain two monitoring channels is an Event Detection System (EDS) and the other is a chemical, biological detection systems and radioactive contamination. ESD is a sophisticated real-time detection events that analyzes the pH, chlorine, turbidity and a variety of other sensors and provides alerts for water quality events. The detection systems CBR contamination are breakthrough technologies that control the water line. The SDS and detection systems CBR contamination are placed according to an optimization model and complementary. Crisis Management: Crisis management is implemented through organizational and human resource training. A pollution alert system combines all information systems and can help any and all procedures, from routine operations to management plans for the consequences. It is an end to security management solution that helps manage all events, major or minor, intentional or unintentional. Recovery: recovery systems are simple but effective. Purification systems include mobile, portable and freshwater systems. The recovery operation, minimizes costs and avoids widespread damage, focusing on efficiency, accuracy. The power resulting from the combination of the five pillars to a comprehensive solution provides the ability to perform public services that far exceed any other single technology in the market today. This synergy, combined with real time response mechanism allows precise management and security in every situation, from everyday tasks, smaller events or serious crises. This is a comprehensive and complete solution developed from the extensive experience of Israel in relation to water and safety. WhitewaterSecurity, a wholly owned subsidiary of Group Whitewater for the first time provides governments, municipalities, utilities, and high-risk facilities worldwide, Israel's holistic approach to water safety. Its success comes from the exploitation of synergies between them all aspects of water safety. Working closely with Mekorot, the national water company of Israel, Whitewater Security gives a vanguard in addressing the problems of water security. With over 70 years experience in ensuring the safety, water quality, Whitewater Security has become the industry leader in the water when municipalities and industries around the world seeking advice on water safety . Furthermore, the Waterwall ™, Whitewater system Security flagship, serves as an end-to water safety management system that helps the utility of managing a series of events, intentional, deliberate or accidental. Using the defensive strategy that employs Whitewater Security, the future of our most precious natural resource will be safe.
