PureLand Wastewater Treatment

As a consultant of the PureLand Wastewater for refining the Cybersecurity owing to

novel “CFATS regulations” from the “US Department of Homeland Security.” The “PureLand

Wastewater” is an organization giving years of involvement in all parts of Wastewater Treatment

with extraordinary accentuation on the “Chemical Manufacturing and Biological Fermentation”

businesses. It changed as of late when PureLand officials and operations people reach by the

“Division of Homeland Security” (DHS) on a particularly harmful substance they use to sterilize

Wastewater in organically perilous procedures Chlorine Dioxide. DHS authorities were mindful

of their utilization of the synthetic in light of freely available waste treatment licenses given to

PureLand by the EPA (dhs, 2016) .

The Current State of Security

PureLand has superior security worries because of the exceedingly dangerous nature of

a portion of the chemicals they use to sanitize and treat wastewater streams for their clients.

Albeit Physical Security has dependably been on their radar and reliable, Cyber Security has not

been something that they were mainly worried. PureLand knew Chlorine Dioxide was an

exceptionally dangerous concoction, yet they had never considered Cyber Terrorism or robbery

of the compound for harm when finishing earlier hazard appraisals. The ramifications of this

were very genuine for PureLand, as they now are required by Federal law to conform to both

Physical and Cyber Security directions identified with their utilization of this substance of

interest. DHS authorities made PureLand mindful of their commitments and educated them that

they would be liable to a review by DHS inside eighteen months that would survey their

consistency with CFATS controls (dhs, 2016)
