Sažetak
Critical Infrastructure (CI) is the backbone of a country’s economy, security and health. The fundamental property of CI systems is their interdependency. The result of such a property is well-known cascading effect, meaning that disruption of a particular CI may cause tremendous losses not only in the sector considered, but in the other CI sectors as well. This is why CI must be secure and able to withstand and rapidly recover from all predictable hazards. On the other words, CI protection, recovery and rescue action plans should be developed on both, sectorial and national level of a country. It seems pretty clear that application of upstream and downstream risk assessment methodologies and decision making based on usage of these methodologies are probably the best procedures to approach such a challenging goal. Actually, risk analysis methods are widely used to inform decisions in areas where equipment failures, human errors, natural phenomena or deliberate human behavior may cause significant impacts to the society. Establishing criticality, development of an appropriate national legislative framework, performing upstream risk analyses and corresponding protection plans of the CI systems analyzed, modeling interdependencies between different assets, performing downstream risk analyses and building confidence between public and private sectors are the essential steps to be token in reaching a consistent National CI Protection Plan (NCIPP) in a country. It is clear now that Croatia is approaching this concept as well. After all, it is an obligation that arises from Council Directive 2008/114/EC.
