Introduction and Methodology

The field of critical infrastructure, and thus their protection and resilience, has become an attractive and challenging field for research in the last 15 years due to the multi-faceted aspects of this field: technical, social, legal, and natural sciences. The emergence of new security threats, and the need for a safer society, is on everyone’s agenda nowadays and many experts, practitioners, and decision-makers are constantly looking for answers and potential directions to achieve an adequate level of security. The contemporary world has become highly dependent on certain types of critical infrastructure, such as those in energy, telecommunications, transport, banking, and finance sectors. Every disruption in these areas leads to serious malfunctions and difficulties which affect citizens, economies, and states’ governance capabilities. The European union is additionally interested in (for several reasons) strengthening this field.
