Disaster Debris Detection and Management System using WSN & IoTEswar Publications
Disasters like earthquake, landslide, flood etc. typically generate enormous amount of debris in the disaster struck area. As a result of these disasters, there will be destruction of properties like home, public infrastructure which results in insecurity, loss of life and property and also interrupts public services. Wireless Sensor Networks play a vital role in disaster debris detection and management. Debris flows usually occurs in mountain regions having steep front. They comprise a huge congregation of solid matter like mud, soil are other waste generated due to earthquake, landslide etc. in water that flows down in the form of a wave. Landslides, earthquake and floods generate debris. They are amongst the foremost vulnerable natural disasters in mountainous torrents. Different factors are attributable to quality of debris flow: firstly their potentiality of
transportation and deposition of enormous quantity of solid matters, which can additionally approach gigantic sizes, their sheer fronts, can attain huge meters of altitude and additionally their high speeds and depth of flow. To mitigate the effects of debris, a disaster debris management system is designed containing an different sensors, Nmote and an N-gateway to measure various parameters of debris flow and an alert is sent to the public and rescue team by using cloud services in advance so that there is less loss of life and property.
This document summarizes a research article that proposes an intelligent environment design using three wireless communication networks to handle urban flood alert and rescue scenarios. A Wireless Sensor Network would measure river levels and alert people in flood-prone areas. A Mobile Ad Hoc Network would route messages from victims to care facilities. A Wireless Mesh Network in temporary shelters would use RFID technology to provide information and services to sheltered people. The design aims to provide communication when existing infrastructure is disrupted by disasters like floods.
This document describes a proposed automated flood control system using wireless sensor networks. The system would use sensors to monitor water levels at various points, and a controller to automatically operate pumps and water channels based on the sensor readings and pre-programmed parameters. This closed-loop system would allow for real-time response to changing water levels to help prevent and reduce flooding in an area. The proposed system could help address the increasing problem of flooding in Nigeria and provide benefits over traditional open-loop control systems.
A report outlines a hypothetical scenario where a cyberattack on an industrial control system leads to flooding from a dam. The scenario describes how a contractor's credentials are stolen via malware, allowing an attacker to access the dam's control system. The attacker maps the network and identifies devices, then causes flooding by slightly raising water release gates without authorization. The flooding could result in significant property damage and economic losses. The report aims to raise awareness of potential "silent cyber" risks from attacks on critical infrastructure systems.

Eyes wide shut: The growing
threat of cyber attacks on
industrial control systems
Joel F. Brenner
Abstract
When industrial control systems are connected to the Internet, they can be vulnerable to cyber attacks. At risk
are energy sources and electric grids, water and sewer systems, manufacturing, banks, transportation and
communication networks, and other systems that may be targeted by hackers, terrorists, or enemy states
seeking to wreak economic havoc. Despite a series of well-publicized cyber attacks in recent years, few
companies have taken the steps necessary to isolate industrial control systems and sensitive information,
and to limit the damage an attack can inflict. Security is not just a matter of dealing with technical issues, which
are fairly straightforward and tactical. The strategic issue is governance: coordinating the efforts of various
departments to ensure that information technology works together with physical security, legal counsel,
human resources, and operations management.

Shire, Australia, filled his car with a
laptop and radio equipment apparently
stolen from his employer and drove
around giving radio commands to the
pumps and valves that controlled the
local sewers. Pumping stations went hay-
wire. Raw sewage poured into local
waterways. Creek water turned black,
fish died, and the stench was appalling
(Brenner, 2011). This was an early warning
of the danger inherent in connecting
industrial control systems to the Internet,
but Maroochy Shire was far away, and
very few people were paying attention.

The document is the August 1, 2015 issue of Radio World, a magazine about radio broadcasting. It provides summaries of two key articles:
1) It discusses efforts to create an early earthquake warning system called ShakeAlert for the West Coast of the US using an FM Radio Data System (RDS) with satellite backbone. The system could provide alerts up to 20 seconds before damaging shaking arrives.
2) It outlines a pilot project between Global Security Systems, KQED San Francisco and Univision Los Angeles to test delivering earthquake early warnings via RDS. The system is able to send alert messages within 6 seconds and provide approximately 14 seconds of warning.

The summary is:
1) YPFB Transporte S.A. (YPFBT) operates over 6,200 km of pipelines in Bolivia traversing difficult terrain.
2) Due to limitations of its legacy CAD system, YPFBT transitioned to Esri's ArcGIS in 2009 for improved data maintenance, mapping, and reporting.
3) YPFBT has continued expanding its use of Esri technology, improving workflow efficiency and safety monitoring of its aging pipeline infrastructure.
The document provides an overview of the Open System Interconnection Model (OSI) and the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The OSI is a 7-layer model that defines a framework for network communication. The layers include the physical, data link, network, transport, session, presentation and application layers. The Telecommunications Act of 1996 overhauled US communications law and allowed any communications firm to compete in the market through fair practices. It impacted telephone, cable, broadcast and educational services. The Act also included provisions for controlling television content and preventing undue concentration in media ownership.
The document discusses methods for preserving data and information in the event of a catastrophic global power grid shutdown. It begins by providing context about society's increasing reliance on electronic data storage and the internet. It then describes how a power grid failure would severely impact communication, businesses, the economy and daily life. The main part of the document evaluates various options for offline data preservation, including writing, CDs/DVDs, USB drives, external hard drives and memory cards. It considers the advantages and disadvantages of each method in terms of durability, storage capacity, cost, and compatibility. The goal is to identify ways to maintain access to information across generations if traditional electronic storage methods were no longer available.

Digital danger zone tackling cyber securityJohn Kingsley
The protection of critical national infrastructure has long been a serious concern to governments in this region, but an all-encompassing approach means achieving this is no longer limited to physical security. The widespread use of interconnected networks and control systems in national oil, gas, power, water and electricity sectors, means there is now a very real and growing need to enhance cyber security, highlighted by an ever increasing number of international attacks.
Indeed, as a region responsible for much of the world’s energy, GCC countries are placing cyber defence as one of their priority areas for development. Saudi Arabia has plans to spend $3.3Bn on oil and gas infrastructure security and Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and the UAE are set to follow suit over the coming years.
“The cyber security threat to energy installations is surprisingly widespread, running across utilities and distribution networks to generation, refining, and even drilling and exploration. Most security professionals now say that if you think you have not had your security breached then you just haven’t detected it,” says Professor Paul Dorey, director at CSO Confidential.

The document discusses cyber security threats to critical infrastructure in the oil, gas and energy sectors. It notes that governments in the Middle East are prioritizing cyber defense given their responsibility for much of the world's energy and interconnected control systems. Experts warn that cyber attacks are increasingly sophisticated and that utilities and infrastructure face threats from state actors, organized crime groups and hacktivists seeking disruption, espionage or financial gain. Stuxnet demonstrated that attacks can damage public safety, economies and the environment. Countries are working to regulate security and cooperate internationally to address evolving cyber threats.

This newsletter provides information on the passing of Bharat Verma, founder and editor of Indian Defence Review, who died of lung cancer at age 62. It discusses the history and editors of Indian Defence Review, which was the first magazine in independent India to focus on national security issues in the private sector. The newsletter also includes commentary from Pakistan praising Verma as a professional and precise defense analyst. Finally, it provides biographical information on DC Nath, the chief patron of the International Council of Security & Safety Management.
The document discusses the rise of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) which has declared the areas it occupies as a new Islamic state called the Islamic State. ISIS has captured large areas of Iraq and Syria, imposing harsh Islamic law. The Israeli Prime Minister has voiced support for an independent Kurdistan, which could lead to more conflict. The document goes on to discuss issues around industrial security in India such as the need for professionalization and proper training of security professionals.
The document summarizes the key topics from the Third Annual BASIS security conference held in May 2014 in Gurgaon, India. It discusses how industry experts shared new insights on emerging security threats and solutions. The author was a panelist discussing how to evaluate a CSO using technology. It also promotes maximizing existing security infrastructure through tools like PSIM that integrate different security systems to improve situational awareness.
The document summarizes the key findings of the India Risk Survey 2014 conducted by Pinkerton and FICCI. It finds that corruption, bribery, and corporate frauds were identified as the top risk in India. Strikes, closures, and unrest were rated as the second highest risk, while political and governance instability was rated as the third highest risk. Crime saw an increase in its risk ranking from the previous survey. Information and cyber insecurity and terrorism were also identified as major risks.
This newsletter discusses security concerns around major festivals in India and advises both security personnel and citizens to be vigilant. It notes many families will travel and leave their homes in the care of security guards. All security staff should diligently perform their duties. However, security is a shared responsibility and everyone should lock doors/windows and secure valuables. The newsletter also cautions children about fireworks safety and advises keeping a first aid kit handy.
The document discusses security issues related to transportation infrastructure in India. It notes that the transportation sector is vast, interconnected, and moves millions of passengers and goods daily, making it an attractive target for terrorists. It calls for an Indian Infrastructure Security Policy and Sector Specific Security Plans for different transportation modes (aviation, maritime, mass transit, etc.) to provide a secure network while enabling legitimate travel and commerce. Key challenges include criminal activities, terrorism, health threats, and improving security without unduly increasing costs or inconveniences.
It is still missing! Could the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane have gone much faster? I think this will become the "Natalee Holloway" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Natalee_Holloway) of air disasters - lots of breathless reports, ‘breaking news’ of no consequence coupled with gobs of bad science & bizarre theories - and no jet found!
It will be quite by accident that a pieces of debris wash-up that can once & for all confirm that it did indeed crashed -- but the bulk of the wreckage is probably entombed in 15000 feet of Indian Ocean water--never to be found. As a growing number of airplanes scoured the southern Indian Ocean in the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, authorities released new details that paint a different picture of what may have happened in the plane's cockpit.
Military radar tracking shows that the aircraft changed altitude after making a sharp turn over the South China Sea as it headed toward the Strait of Malacca, a source close to the investigation into the missing flight told CNN. The plane flew as low as 12,000 feet at some point before it disappeared from radar, according to the source. And imagine that each neighboring country very aggressively monitors not only its own air-space but that of all the countries it shares boundaries of its air-space and not a bird should ideally fly without their coming to know of it. The mystery deepens on each passing days and yet there is no trace of ill-fated flight!
Back home, there were two noteworthy events for which ICISS was the event partner. In Mumbai two days seminar called Secutech India Security & Safety Conclave 2014 held from 6-7 March 2014. There were four tracks of seminars. Alongside the seminar there was well planned exhibition having latest security and safety related gadgets and systems on display from highly reputed companies. First day's seminar was inaugurated by Shri Maninderjit Singh Bitta and second day's seminar was opened by Shri Satej D Patil, the Minister of State for Home in Govt. of Maharashtra. On 21st March 2014 at Delhi, there was release of India Risk Survey 2014 which was conducted jointly by FICCI & Pinkerton. The survey report is enclosed for our esteemed members and readers.

For ICISS
This month, there are two important events taking place – one in Mumbai (India) and other one in Abu Dhabi (UAE) and ICISS is Event Partner for both of them! While the seminar in Mumbai, “Secutech India Safety & Security Conclave 2014” is focusing on Security Solutions for Vertical Markets, the “Global Energy Security Conference 2014” in Abu Dhabi will have in-depth discussions on Corporate Security Integration with the Business, Security Mitigation Measures for International Companies and Ensuring Security at Oil & Gas Infrastructure in High Risk Areas against Terrorism.
The Pinkerton initiatives in India have been very useful in identifying the real threats faced by various sectors and strategies to mitigate them. The past survey results have been found very useful by the Corporates operating in India and for those wishing to set-up their operations in India in formulating their Security & Risk Policies and the measures to counter the treats. Like last year, the ICISS has partnered in this survey and we request all our readers to positively respond to this survey.

The document discusses a recent attack by Naxalites in Bihar where they blew up a jeep killing 7 people including 6 police officers. While no group has claimed responsibility, it is believed to be the work of CPI(Maoist) which is the largest Naxalite group active in the area. The aim of the Naxalites is to overthrow the government through armed struggle as they do not believe in the democratic system. They have significant presence across several states in India. The growing Naxalite insurgency poses a major internal security threat to India. Tribal displacement due to development projects has contributed to the Naxalites gaining support in tribal areas.
The document discusses securing natural gas pipeline infrastructure from cyber attacks. It notes that while technological advances have made pipelines more efficient, they have also increased vulnerabilities to sophisticated cyber criminals. The document outlines various risks to pipeline operators from cyber threats and recommends strengthening security measures like firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and event logging. It also stresses the importance of securing supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems through technical and administrative controls as well as addressing legacy equipment vulnerabilities.

This document discusses security measures for shopping malls in the aftermath of the terrorist attack at Westgate Mall in Nairobi, Kenya that killed at least 68 people. It recommends that malls increase security measures and update emergency response plans given their status as soft targets. It also details Mumbai police plans to grade malls on their security preparedness from A to F. Malls receiving low grades would receive warnings and could lose their licenses if security breaches are not addressed. The grading will evaluate 25 security parameters like entry/exit security, CCTV coverage, evacuation plans and results of attempts by undercover police to breach security. Recent attempts revealed most malls in Mumbai failed to prevent police from entering with explosives or weapons, highlighting the

1) Industry standards for security systems and protocols have evolved from proprietary approaches to more open standards-based systems to allow for greater interoperability and access to data.
2) While open standards provide benefits, they also introduce new security risks as systems become more interconnected and accessible. Most industries are still working to balance functionality, access, and security.
3) Developing an effective long-term security philosophy requires understanding the tradeoffs between technology, standards, industry practices, and organizational needs over time. Security strategies must adapt to changing technical and business conditions.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

the Council of 16 December 2002 establishing common rules in the field of civil aviation
security and thus provided the basis for allowing harmonization of aviation security rules
across the European Union with binding effect. That regulatory framework has since been
overhauled by a new framework, in full effect from 29 April 2010, as laid down by Regulation
(EC) No 300/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2008 on
common rules in the field of civil aviation security and repealing Regulation (EC) No
2320/2002.
Rescinding the limitations on the carriage of small pocketknives on board aircraft was always
going to be a challenge. Like so many other measures that the industry has introduced over
the years, it is always easy to add security measures, yet far harder to take them away. The
brouhaha that was initiated by the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) recent
announcement that knives with blades shorter than 6cms, of a width less than 1.27cms at
their widest point, without locking or fixed blades and without moulded handgrips will, from 25
April, be permitted in carryon baggage was to be expected, especially in the United States in
light of the fact that box cutters (which will remain banned) were used in the perpetration of
the attacks on 11th September 2001.
The debate, which has become a huge political issue, emphasises three things. Firstly the
problem with knee-jerk procedures being implemented as a response to a terrorist attack;
secondly, the extent to which intelligent people fail to deploy common sense and allow their
emotions to rule their decision-making processes; and thirdly, the frightening willingness of
certain groups to hold onto politically acceptable security measures, such as the ban on
knives, whilst rejecting effective, yet politically sensitive, security measures, such as profiling,
whilst arguing the case that they are speaking on behalf of those who died in 2001.
Some incidents have been the result of travellers being permitted to carry either weapons or
items that could be used as weapons on board aircraft so that they could hijack the plane.
Travellers are screened by metal detectors. Explosive detection machines used include X-ray
machines and explosives trace-detection portal machines (a.k.a. "puffer machines"). In the
United States the TSA is working on new scanning machines that are still effective searching
for objects that aren't allowed in the airplanes but that don't depict the passengers in a state
of undress that some find embarrassing. Explosive detection machines can also be used for
both carry on and checked baggage. These detect volatile compounds given off from
explosives using gas chromatography.
A recent development is the controversial use of backscatter X-rays to detect hidden
weapons and explosives on passengers. These devices, which use Compton scattering,
require that the passenger stand close to a flat panel and produce a high resolution image. A
technology released in Israel in early 2008 allows passengers to pass through metal
detectors without removing their shoes, a process required as walk-though gate detectors
are not reliable in detecting metal in shoes or on the lower body extremities. Alternately, the
passengers step fully shoed onto a device which scans in under 1.2 seconds for objects as
small as a razor blade. In some countries, specially trained individuals may engage
passengers in a conversation to detect threats rather than solely relying on equipment to find
threats.
