| Abstract | In the distributed Supervisory Control and Data Acquisitions (SCADA) system there is a need of doing the acquisition of very large amount of data on the network to visualize the same process in realtime or in the future. Water is distributed automatically to large area through autonomous SCADA systems. This makes the systems prone to various attacks at different instances and levels. The SCADA systems are also used for distributing common resources that range from Gas, Electricity, and Water distribution. It is the need of the hour to work on the security issues of such distribution systems to provide hassle-free services. This paper reviews the major problems on the water distribution system and possible attacks that are harmful during data acquisition and transfer. This paper also gives the insight on the latest technologies like elastic search and data modelling to increase the security of the water distribution system. |
