Whitewater Security, a subsidiary of the Whitewater Technology Group, announces the successful completion of the first phase of a comprehensive three-phase program to safeguard the drinking water of a major city in Israel. The company’s groundbreaking approach combines an individually tailored security plan with cutting-edge tools and expert training that enables water authorities to take immediate full control, online in real time, of every aspect - and every inch - of their water supply systems - including the pinpoint monitoring of specific locations within cities.

Protecting against both deliberate and accidental contamination, the program covers all areas of water crisis management. An advanced Decision Support System aids in the planning of system design and component placement, as well as damage control in the case of actual contamination. Based on an in-depth needs analysis, Whitewater’s end-to-end, fully integrated solution is custom-designed and implemented by some of the world’s leading security specialists, in order to minimize infrastructure vulnerability and ensure a continuous supply of safe, high quality water.

Israeli City Undergoes Complete Risk Evaluation for Water Contamination
The municipal project in Israel was undertaken by Whitewater in cooperation with Mekorot, Israel’s national water company. Having successfully completed the first stage, a comprehensive risk evaluation, the company will now develop a tailor-made security program for the city, followed by the third and final stage - implementation and support.  The object of the first phase of the project - Vulnerability Assessment - was to evaluate the vulnerability of the entire area over which the municipal authority is responsible. This stage involved identifying critical locations, evaluating all aspects and components of the system, and mapping threats - including probability of occurrence, consequences, and solution feasibility.
