Our Nation's critical infrastructures are composed of public and
private institutions in the sectors of agriculture, food, water,
public health, emergency services, government, defense industrial
base, information and telecommunications, energy, transportation,
banking and finance, chemicals and hazardous materials, and postal
and shipping. Cyberspace is their nervous system - the control
system of our country. Cyberspace is composed of hundreds of
thousands of interconnected computers, servers, routers, switches,
and fiber optic cables that allow our critical infrastructures to
work. Thus, the healthy functioning of cyberspace is essential to
our economy and our national security. This National Strategy to
Secure Cyberspace is part of our overall effort to protect the
Nation. It is an implementing component of the National Strategy
for Homeland Security and is complemented by a National Strategy
for the Physical Protection of Critical Infrastructures Key Assets.
The purpose of this document is to engage and empower Americans to
secure the portions of cyberspace that they own, operate, control,
or with which they interact. Securing cyberspace is a difficult
strategic challenge that requires coordinated and focused effort
from our entire society - the federal government, state and local
governments, the private sector, and the American people.
