Protection of Critical Infrastructure
Protection of critical infrastructure involves safeguarding essential systems and assets—such as energy, water, transportation, and communication networks—that society depends on daily. This includes implementing security measures, monitoring for threats, and planning for emergencies to ensure these vital services remain available and resilient against physical attacks, cyber threats, or natural disasters. The goal is to reduce risks, prevent disruptions, and quickly recover if an incident occurs, thereby maintaining public safety, economic stability, and national security.
