Water & Wastewater SCADA Resilience Guide

Distributed assets require consistent telemetry, fallback communications, and clear escalation workflows.

Define minimum viable visibility for pumps, reservoirs, disinfection, and critical power states at every site.

Use tiered alarm routing to avoid flooding operators while preserving response speed for true process risk.

Test failover scenarios quarterly: comms loss, PLC restart, historian outage, and operator handoff.
