“…A comparative exploration of approaches to managing risks related to hazardous incidents and critical infrastructure outages has been carried out by Krings et al [67]. Häyhtiö and Zaerens [68] proposed a risk management model to assess financial differences between centralized and decentralized protection of CIs. A general overview on the problem of protecting CIs has been discussed by Capano [69].…”

Industrialized societies depend on the proper functioning of a whole range of technological infrastructures, such as electricity, road and railway networks and telecommunications which, due to their importance, are generically referred to as critical infrastructures (CIs). Technical failures, natural disasters and malicious events, if not terrorist, could have devastating effects on these infrastructures. The events of the last few years have accelerated efforts to identify and designate CIs at national and European levels and have reinforced concerns about increasing their protection in sensitive sectors for the safety of the individual and the community. The aim of this research is to provide the basic elements to understand the issue along with the reasons for its importance both at national, European and international level. In particular, after analyzing the origin of the problem, a systematic literature review is carried out to study the current research around future perspectives relating to the management of Cis, with particular focus on three research questions: RQ1 “What types of risk assessment methods are used to manage CIs?”, RQ2 “What are the environmental risk mitigation strategies for CIs?” and RQ3 “What is the role of the human factor in the prevention of risks for CIs?”. The results aim to be guidelines for decision makers and researchers interested in this topic.

Industry 4.0 Solutions Impacts on Critical Infrastructure Safety and Protection–A Systematic Literature Review

et al. 2022

In today's turbulent and complex times, the importance of the functional security and continuity of critical infrastructure (CI) is of particular importance. The Industry 4.0 (I4.0) toolset contains many technologies that support CI or are an integral part thereof. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between CI and I4.0. The goal will be achieved by ( 1) conducting a systematic literature review using VOSviewer, (2) identifying leading research topics using Latent Dirichlet Allocation, (3) mapping the results obtained and identifying possibilities for further research. Web of Science, Scopus, and a set of specific keywords were used to select peer-reviewed papers presenting evidence of the considered connections. Selected clusters and topics were used to build a reference framework formed by relations between CI and I4.0. The results revealed that despite the popularity of both issues, studies examining the mutual relations between the same are lacking. The added value of the article is that it organizes the knowledge related to relations between I4.0 and CI, and indicates the research areas that require further scrutiny. It is the first comprehensive literature review focusing specifically on CI & I4.0.

“…There is a lack of a proposal for a holistic solution that would create a set of safeguards based on the threats to which CI is vulnerable. The majority of research only indicates the need to develop dedicated methods and define the framework model for CI safety management (Hofreiter and Zvakova, 2016;Häyhtiö and Zaerens, 2017).…”

“…Developed IMCIS is consistent with the conducted research on the CI protection domain. IMCIS is a platform for their integration and a proposal for operationalizing the concepts indicated in the work of Hofreite et al (2016), and Häyhtiö and Zaerens (2017). Additionally, the approach to describing the CI characteristics and generating AES makes it possible to apply IMCIS to the management of essential services safety, which are responsible for public safety indicated in international legal acts (EU Journal of Laws 2016 No 194 item 1).…”

Purpose: This paper aims to create a dedicated tool for managing the level of availability of services delivered by critical infrastructure (CI) facilities, which will affect the Sustainable Development Goals. The paper established a link between sustainability, Industry 4.0, and critical infrastructure. The literature analysis has indicated that the security of Industry 4.0 is discussed almost exclusively in the perspective of cyber security. Design/Methodology/Approach: Verification of the tool was carried out based on simulations and computational experience using data PKN ORLEN Refinery Inc. Findings: As a result of the work carried out, an Integral Model of Critical Infrastructure Safety (IMCIS) was obtained, which allows us to present CI's current characteristics. It was established that the canon of characterization of CI objects consists of a set of resources, a set of functionalities, a set of threats, a set of safeguards, a set of threat dependencies, and a set of dependencies of objects recognized as CI. Practical Implications: A universal application of the IMCIS is to estimate the level of risk before and after implementing safeguards and generating adverse event scenarios. The identified threats are the decision-making areas of the decision problem, whose solution is indicated by a set of safeguards reducing the risk level to an acceptable level. Originality/Value: The solution can be used to identify a set of safeguards that, on the one hand, will reduce the cost of the business operator to a minimum and, on the other hand, achieve the required level of availability of CI functionality. In addition, IMCIS allows analyzing all threats that may affect the infrastructure of Industry 4.0, taking into account many independent decision-making centers.
