Summary

"Critical Infrastructure (CI) is fundamental to the functioning of a modern economy and, consequently, maintaining CI security is paramount. However, despite all the security technology available for threats and risks to CI, this crucial area often generates more fear than rational discussion. Apprehension unfortunately prompts many involved in CI policy to default to old-fashioned intuition rather than depend on modern concrete risk assessment as the basis for vital security decisions." "Going beyond definitions, this book looks at all the defined CI sectors and suggests previously overlooked, yet critical, industries for inclusion in revised definitions. This book introduces the concept of CI as an industrial and enterprise risk conductor, highlighting the reality that a CI failure can propagate a crisis with cascading repercussions to other CI sectors and the entire economic eco-system."--BOOK JACKET.
