Critical Infrastructure Protection in Homeland Security: Defending a Networked Nation

2006 y.
Publisher:
Description: A scientific approach to the new field of critical infrastructure protection This book offers a unique scientific approach to the new field of critical infrastructure protection: it uses network theory, optimization theory, and simulation software to analyze and understand how infrastructure sectors evolve, where they are vulnerable, and how they can best be protected. The author demonstrates that infrastructure sectors as diverse as water, power, energy, telecommunications, and the Internet have remarkably similar structures. This observation leads to a rigorous approach to vulnerability analysis in all of these sectors. The analyst can then decide the best way to allocate limited funds to minimize risk, regardless of industry sector. The key question addressed in this timely book is: What should be protected and how? The author proposes that the answer lies in allocating a nation`s scarce resources to the most critical components of each infra-structure-the [detailed...]

Critical Infrastructure: Understanding Its Component Parts, Vulnerabilities, Operating Risks, and Interdependencies

2008 y.
Publisher:
Description: Critical Infrastructure (CI) is a little understood topic, which seems to generate more fear than rational discussion. CIs are considered fundamental to the functioning of modern economies. Moving beyond definitions, this volume looks at the iron triangle within CI: power, telecom, and finance. It introduces the concept of CIs as industrial and enterprise risk conductors, highlighting the fact that a CI failure can propagate an impact throughout an enterprise. This text rethinks the concept of a CI according to contemporary factors, providing guidance for mitigating risk within the framework of national economies. [detailed...]

This change includes: increasingly rapid technological change, rapid institutional change, increasingsystem complexity, increasing trans-boundary dependencies, tensions between market concerns addressing (short-term) economic gains, and increasing demands on service quality. These and other changes pose formidable challenges to policy makers, business innovators, system designers, infrastructure operators and scientists alike.

y.
Publisher:
Description: Leading the problems most critical to government decision makers worldwide are those that derive from privatization, democratization, and decentralization.

Among the many important features of the book is its interdisciplinary approach and the way it offers African, Asian, Latin American, European, and North American viewpoints. It also combines the perspectives of liberal and conservative ideologies.

However, this approach overlooks the fact that certain managerial and organizational practices developed in Central and Eastern Europe may still be appropriate and indeed effective within this particular setting. The book brings together authors from both East and West Europe to evaluate how the two systems can best be harmonized. [detailed...]
