critical infrastructures. This type of research is also referred to as a survey of the literature. Allowable
sources for your literature survey are journal articles, papers published in conference proceedings, and
research studies published in dissertations.
Overview
Your audience is a group of senior executives who will be meeting to decide which emerging
applications of technologies should be selected for a security-focused, Internal Research & Development
projects during the next budget cycle. Each of these executives is responsible for developing products
and systems that support next generation systems in the nation’s critical infrastructure sectors.
The high-level visibility for your deliverable means that you need to start from a strong foundation of
suitable research-based journal articles, papers published in conference proceedings, and doctoral
dissertations. The basic question that must be answered about the selected technology is: what are the
cybersecurity implications (good or bad) for the selected critical infrastructure sector?
In addition, the executives have expressed the following information needs, which must be met by the
deliverable for this assignment:
(a) characteristics of the critical infrastructure,
(b) characteristics of the technology,
(c) use of the technology to support or improve cybersecurity,
(d) use of the technology to reduce or manage risk,
(e) use of the technology to increase resistance to threats/attacks,
(f) use of the technology to decrease vulnerabilities in an existing technology application,
(g) use or exploitation of the technology by attackers, criminals, terrorists, etc. to accomplish their
goals.
