Article extract from 'Defence and security in the information age', by General Sir Richard Barrons
“Government, industry and the general public are aware of how much our daily life relies on the safe and efficient functioning of critical national infrastructure (CNI). Although the risks are sometimes exposed by industrial disputes or by the effects of disaster, man-made or natural, we generally still take a constant supply of goods and services for granted.
To these risks we can add a developing recognition of the importance of cyber defence as part of CNI resilience, which tends to focus on individual criminal or terrorist acts. Overall, however, our thinking about the security of our daily life reflects the experience of a comfortable existence since the end of the Cold War and breeds assumptions that the future will be more of the same. It is time for a harder look at what the future may hold for the defence and security of the UK and the place of CNI within it."
