Summary
In this chapter, we examined the complexities of securing CI in a timely manner. As CIs such as power grids and transportation networks become more interconnected with technology, they face greater cyber threats. This section highlights the importance of advanced cybersecurity, including AI and robust encryption, and stresses the essential role of human oversight and training. The growing use of IoT devices and smart technologies adds to the complexity, requiring stronger security protocols.
Emphasis is placed on the need for collaboration, including PPPs and cross-sector cooperation, for intelligence sharing and best practices. The text also points out the necessity for resilience and rapid recovery in infrastructure systems to withstand and recover from attacks. Anticipated stricter regulations are discussed as essential for bolstering infrastructure security against diverse threats. We present a future where safeguarding CI involves a blend of technological innovation...
