Critical Infrastructures Resilience will be of interest to students of engineering and policy. It identifies solutions that are scientifically credible, data driven, and engineering principles.
Port Cybersecurity: Securing Critical Information Infrastructures and Supply Chains examines a paradigm shift in the way ports assess cyber risks and vulnerabilities, as well as relevant risk manageme
Each spring, the Cyber Project at Georgetown University's Institute for Law, Science, and Global Security convenes a conference of leading international experts from academia, the private sector, and

A cogent overview of the threat spectrum of cyberspace attacks and cyber weapons, this book introduces the arsenal of cyber tools and sophisticated attacks targeting our national security and our crit
This book describes the challenges that critical infrastructure systems face, and presents state of the art solutions to address them. How can we design intelligent systems or intelligent agents that
As the sophistication of cyber-attacks increases, understanding how to defend critical infrastructure systems—energy production, water, gas, and other vital systems—becomes more important, and heavily
Today s global dependency on critical network infrastructure predicates a crucial need for clear analysis of the risks and interdependencies it generates. This book details practical assessment method
While there are numerous benefits to be gained from the gradual convergence of cloud services, smart grid (the evolving intelligent electric grid), and mobile telecommunications, the changes they brin
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th IFIP TC 9 International Conference on Human Choice and Computers, HCC10 2012, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in September 2012. The 37 r
The worldwide reach of the Internet allows malicious cyber criminals to coordinate and launch attacks on both cyber and cyber-physical infrastructure from anywhere in the world. This purpose of this h
Whilst Information Systems has the potential to widen our view of the world, it often has the opposite effect by limiting our ability to interact, facilitating managerial and state surveillance or ins
In terms of energy security the Black Sea region is important to Europe. Inevitably and for very good reasons, a lot of attention has been given to the existing and planned pipeline routes going aroun
Energy Security examines the topic beyond pipeline politics, without undermining its continued significance. The text addresses topical questions related to the sustainability and resilience of energy
Safety-critical systems, by definition those systems whose failure can cause catastrophic results for people, the environment, and the economy, are becoming increasingly complex both in their function
This handbook provides a consolidated, comprehensive information resource for engineers working with mission- and safety-critical embedded systems. Principles, regulations, and processes common to al
This text starts at the foundations of the field, and is accessible with some background in functional analysis. As such, the book is ideal for classroom of self study. The new material covered also m
This edited volume uses a ‘constructivist/reflexive’ approach to address critical infrastructure protection (CIP), a central political practice associated with national security.The politics of CIP, a
Bestselling author Ron Krutz once again demonstrates his ability to make difficult security topics approachable with this first in-depth look at SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system
The threat that is posed by 'cyber warriors' is illustrated by recent incidents such as the Year 2000 'Millennium bug'. Strategies to reduce the risk that cyber attack poses, at both individual and na
