Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience
The Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience (CISaR) research group's mission is to support the private and public sector to prepare for and respond correctly to security incidents involving critical infrastructure in Norway. We focus on knowledge and capacity building through research, education, and training.
Critical infrastructure is an asset or system which is essential for the maintenance of vital societal functions. In Norway, Communication networks; electric power; water and wastewater; transportation; oil and gas infrastructure; and satellite communications are defined as critical infrastructure.
The security and resilience of national infrastructure has become a part of national security and critical infrastructure security and resilience has emerged as a field of great interest for research in cyber security.
