Management and Engineering of Critical Infrastructures focuses on
two important aspects of CIS, management and engineering. The book
provides an ontological foundation for the models and methods
needed to design a set of systems, networks and assets that are
essential for a society's functioning, and for ensuring the
security, safety and economy of a nation. Various examples in
agriculture, the water supply, public health, transportation,
security services, electricity generation, telecommunication, and
financial services can be used to substantiate dangers. Disruptions
of CIS can have serious cascading consequences that would stop
society from functioning properly and result in loss of life.
Malicious software (a.k.a., malware), for example, can disrupt the
distribution of electricity across a region, which in turn can lead
to the forced shutdown of communication, health and financial
sectors. Subsequently, proper engineering and management are
important to anticipate possible risks and threats and provide
resilient CIS. Although the problem of CIS has been broadly
acknowledged and discussed, to date, no unifying theory nor
systematic design methods, techniques and tools exist for such CIS.
