In a world where everything is connected and interdependent, complexity has become part of our very way of life, and it must be part of our way of thinking. But, especially when we look at infrastructure security, the boundaries between analog and digital, physical and cyber, are simply not there anymore.

In today's conversation, we discuss the importance of looking at our society, economy, and security as a complex system of interdependent subsystems. Everything is connected, and we are not just referring to IoT.

From bridges to nuclear plants, to the President's car, and all the way up to space, the security assessment of critical infrastructure is not a checklist but a mindset.

About The Book As a manager or engineer have you ever been assigned a task to perform a risk assessment of one of your facilities or plant systems? What if you are an insurance inspector or corporate auditor? Do you know how to prepare yourself for the inspection, decided what to look for, and how to write your report?

This is a handbook for junior and senior personnel alike on what constitutes critical infrastructure and risk and offers guides to the risk assessor on preparation, performance, and documentation of a risk assessment of a complex facility. This is a definite “must read” for consultants, plant managers, corporate risk managers, junior and senior engineers, and university students before they jump into their first technical assignment.
