assessment tools for improving the security and the resilience of water infrastructures against major threats. The new developments will be investigated and evaluated by means of real-world use cases. The specific threats are defined by the partner water utilities Berliner Wasserbetriebe (Germany), EMS (Strasbourg, France), and VEDIF - Veolia Eau d'Ile de France (France). Additionally, experiments will be conducted at TZW (Dresden, Germany) with test platform facilities and also on the private water network at CEA/DAM (Gramat, France). The R&D; work will be accompanied by socioeconomic studies ensuring, among other considerations, that the privacy and the freedom of the citizens are not compromised. n References: Braun, M.; Bernard, T.; Ung, H.; Pillier, O.; Gilbert, D.
