The information infrastructure---comprising computers, embedded
devices, networks and software systems---is vital to day-to-day
operations in every sector: information and telecommunications,
banking and finance, energy, chemicals and hazardous materials,
agriculture, food, water, public health, emergency services,
transportation, postal and shipping, government and defense. Global
business and industry, governments, indeed society itself, cannot
function effectively if major components of the critical
information infrastructure are degraded, disabled or destroyed.
Critical Infrastructure Protection describes original research
results and innovative applications in the interdisciplinary field
of critical infrastructure protection. Also, it highlights the
importance of weaving science, technology and policy in crafting
sophisticated, yet practical, solutions that will help secure
information, computer and network assets in the various critical
infrastructure sectors. Areas of coverage include: - Themes and
Issues - Infrastructure Security - Control Systems Security -
Network Infrastructure Security - Infrastructure Interdependencies
- Risk Assessment This book is the first volume in the annual
series produced by the International Federation for Information
Processing (IFIP) Working Group 11.10 on Critical Infrastructure
Protection, an international community of scientists, engineers,
practitioners and policy makers dedicated to advancing research,
development and implementation efforts focused on infrastructure
protection. The book contains a selection of twenty-seven edited
papers from the First Annual IFIP WG 11.10 International Conference
onCritical Infrastructure Protection, held at Dartmouth College,
Hanover, New Hampshire, USA in the spring of 2007. Critical
Infrastructure Protection is an important resource for researchers,
faculty members and graduate students, as well as for policy
makers, practitioners and other individuals with interests in
homeland security. Eric Goetz is the Associate Director for
Research at the Institute for Information Infrastructure
Protection, Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire, USA. Sujeet
Shenoi is the F.P. Walter Professor of Computer Science and a
principal with the Center for Information Security at the
