Abstract

Critical infrastructure Protection (CIP) includes ensuring the resilience of transportation infrastructures. This sector is considered vital worldwide due to its economic importance and due to the various interdependencies with other infrastructures and sectors. This paper aims at examining the current state in national policies and in research regarding the protection of transport infrastructures. It examines methods to model interdependencies and to assess risk suitable for transport CIP. It recommends future steps for research in this sector.
