Design of a Platform for Information Exchange on Protection of Critical Infrastructures

In order to face risk in critical infrastructures, coordination and communication are fundamental factors. The fragmentation of the management of infrastructures and the delegation of part of the management of risk to private bodies asks for effective electronic communications. These communications should integrate or substitute traditional face to face communications and protocols and should involve all relevant European actors and regulatory bodies. The technology on which these communications are exchanged should contribute to the creation of mutual trust among the involved actors. The design of an effective information exchange system on critical infrastructures is a huge enterprise since the electronic communication technology is apparently still immature in this respect. Consequently, some theoretical work has still to be done and accurate design is needed before proceeding with the engineering phase.
