Definition of CI

• A Critical Infrastructure (CI) is a large scale
  infrastructure which if degraded, disrupted or
  destroyed, would have a serious impact on health,
  safety, security or well-beings of citizens or
  the effective functioning of governments and/or
  economy.
• (W. Schmitz, 2006)

3
Examples of CIs

• Electrical Power Transmission and Distribution
  Networks
• Oil and Gas pipelines
• Roads and motorways
• Water supply networks
• Communication networks (voice, data)
• ..

4
Rationale

• Theoretical Interest
• CIs are excellent metaphores of CS
• Technological relevance
• Update Control technology
• CI growth, mostly oversized and overloaded
• New paradigms (electrical micro-generation)
• Protection (increase resilience, self-healing
  etc.)
• Interdependencies
• Interest in coupling multiple CIs
