What are the economic consequences of failing to protect critical infrastructure?

• Preparing for, responding to, and recovering from disasters

• Managing critical infrastructure

• Severe economic losses, impacting industries, supply chains and job markets

• Geographical vulnerabilities, aging infrastructure, technological threats, and interdependencies

What are the types of critical infrastructure?

• Human resources, software, data, and policies

• Financial assets, equipment, technology, and procedures

• Natural resources, personnel, technology, and regulations

• Transportation Networks, Energy System, Communication System and Water and Wastewater systems

What are the vulnerabilities faced by critical infrastructure?

• Terrorist attacks, network congestion, system crashes, and software vulnerabilities

• Data breaches, software glitches, communication breakdowns, and maintenance issues

• Malware attacks, software bugs, power outages, and system overload

• Physical attacks, cyber attacks, natural disasters, equipment failure, and human error

What is the impact of failing to protect critical infrastructure?

• Failing to protect critical infrastructure only affects a small number of people.

• The impact of failing to protect critical infrastructure is minimal.

• Failing to protect critical infrastructure has no impact.

• The impact of failing to protect critical infrastructure can be severe and wide-ranging.

Describe the role of IDM in ensuring the resilience of critical infrastructure.

• IDM assists in developing contingency plans for critical infrastructure.

• IDM helps in monitoring the performance of critical infrastructure.

• IDM helps in identifying and mapping dependencies between different components of critical infrastructure.

• IDM is responsible for maintaining the physical security of critical infrastructure.

What are the measures to mitigate vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure?

• Regular maintenance, weak access controls, outdated software, lack of intrusion detection and prevention systems, no incident response plans, and no employee training.

• Irregular risk assessments, weak access controls, system updates and patches, lack of intrusion detection and prevention systems, no incident response plans, and no employee training.

• No risk assessments, weak access controls, no system updates and patches, lack of intrusion detection and prevention systems, no incident response plans, and no employee training.

• Regular risk assessments, strong access controls, system updates and patches, intrusion detection and prevention systems, incident response plans, and employee training.

Explain the importance of IDM in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

• IDM helps streamline business processes and increase operational efficiency.

• IDM ensures compliance with industry regulations and standards.

• IDM helps control access to sensitive information and resources, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and potential security breaches.

• IDM improves collaboration and communication among employees.
