Critical Information Infrastructures Security

Focusing on vital infrastructure security, Critical Information Infrastructures Security compiles key research from a prominent conference, addressing pressing issues and innovative solutions.

This book presents a collection of revised and selected papers from the 9th International Conference on Critical Information Infrastructures Security, CRITIS 2014, which took place in Limassol, Cyprus, in October 2014. The conference focused on pressing issues surrounding the security of critical information infrastructures, covering a variety of topics including the security of water systems, power and energy system security, and cyber security policies. These discussions are essential in the context of increasing threats to vital infrastructure and the need for robust recovery strategies.

The volume includes a total of 39 papers, consisting of 20 full papers and 19 short papers, all of which underwent a rigorous review process. These contributions were selected from a pool of 74 submissions, highlighting the quality and relevance of the research presented. The papers are organized into topical sections that address various aspects of critical infrastructure security, such as cyber-physical systems, sensor networks, and security tools and protocols.

Critical Information Infrastructures Security serves as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in the field of information security. By compiling a diverse range of studies and findings, this book aims to foster a deeper understanding of the challenges and solutions related to the protection of vital infrastructures in an increasingly interconnected world.
