Más información sobre el libro

The information infrastructure, including computers, networks, and software systems, is essential for operations across various sectors such as telecommunications, finance, energy, agriculture, public health, and government. The effective functioning of global business, industry, and society relies on the integrity of this critical infrastructure. This work presents original research and innovative applications in the interdisciplinary field of critical infrastructure protection, emphasizing the integration of science, technology, and policy to develop practical solutions for securing information and network assets. Key areas covered include Control Systems Security, Cyber-Physical Systems Security, Infrastructure Security, Modeling and Simulation, and Risk Assessment. This volume is part of an annual series from the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 11.10, which focuses on advancing research and implementation efforts in infrastructure protection. It features nineteen edited papers from the Ninth Annual IFIP WG 11.10 International Conference on Critical Infrastructure Protection, held in Arlington, Virginia, in 2015. This resource is valuable for researchers, faculty, graduate students, and policymakers with interests in homeland security. The editors, Mason Rice and Sujeet Shenoi, bring expertise from their respective academic positions.
