This blog infraprotect.blogspot.com (or infraprotect dot blogspot dot com ) focuses on the Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) Security issues. CII means the information layer which critical infrastructures depend on for planning, operation and management. Security compromises in the information layer may impact the infrastructure service operations and continuity which in turn affects the national economy and integrity.

What This Site is About ...
Many of our National Infrastructures today, for example, energy, banking and finance, information and communication, national defense and security, transportation, water, health services, government, emergency services, food and agriculture, depend heavily on information systems and information transmission. Increasingly these information channels use and are dependent on the Internet.
Virus and malware incidents as well as cyber attacks on the infrastructures have happened in the past and have crippled the affected societies in varying degrees. A national level initiative is mandatory to ensure that such infrastructures are not vulnerable to cyber incidents and can respond to cyber incidents. This site is an attempt to assemble materials, links and articles on the subject of Critical Information Infrastructure Protection and Security. The copyright of any materials quoted or linked remain with the respective owners.
