Abstract:
The security of any nation mostly depends on the reliable functioning of critical infrastructures and on a strengthened resilience to possible crisis situations. As a link, strategic management should comprise grid monitoring activities and cyber threats that can exploit points of connectivity systems and generally quite seriously affect the financial area in particular. With a good risk management, cooperation between state institutions and the private sector, based on a set of standards and best practices, may lead to the construction of a stable social environment and business. The article proposes the presentation of a projection about financial sector correlated with systems that include critical infrastructure, in national and international context.
