Description
Much has changed recently in the business of delivering safe, high-quality drinking water. Concerns about the nation's public water supplies were raised within weeks of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks when the FBI issued a national warning about possible terrorist threats directed to water supplies.
One area of concern is cyber security. In this course, participants will learn what types of action should be taken to secure SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems and other computer-based systems from outside instrustion.
