A GREAT DISCUSSION FOR SECURITY, PROTECTION & RESILIENCE
OF CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

MEDIA SUPPORTERS:

Presidential Policy Directive 21 (PPD-21): Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience advances a national policy to strengthen and maintain secure, functioning, and resilient critical infrastructure.

The Nation’s critical infrastructure provides the essential services that underpin American society. Proactive and coordinated efforts are necessary to strengthen and maintain secure, functioning, and resilient critical infrastructure – including assets, networks, and systems – that are vital to public confidence and the Nation’s safety, prosperity, and well-being.

Critical infrastructure must be secure and able to withstand and rapidly recover from all hazards. Achieving this will require integration with the national preparedness system across prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery.

If you are an operator/owner, you are responsible for the security and resilience of your assets. There is the need to work with government agencies and industry to enhance the security and protection of national infrastructure – are you prepared?
