The Importance of Cybersecurity in Critical Infrastructure
Cybersecurity is a critical issue for critical infrastructure, as it is essential to protecting the nation's security, economic stability, and public health. In recent years, there has been a growing number of cyberattacks targeting critical infrastructure, such as power grids, transportation systems, and financial institutions. These attacks can have devastating consequences, such as power outages, transportation disruptions, and financial losses.

To address these challenges, the incoming administration and members of critical infrastructure communities must prioritize cybersecurity, combat emerging threats, craft meaningful policy, and consider modernization and nascent technologies. The International Cybersecurity Institute (ICIT) has published a guide to help these stakeholders achieve these goals.

The guide is designed to feature the seventeen critical infrastructure sectors as individual chapters that contain multiple 2,000 - 4,000-word essays. These essays will provide an in-depth analysis of the cybersecurity challenges and opportunities in each sector, as well as the best practices for protecting critical infrastructure.

The audience of the publication is designed to include technical and general readers in the critical infrastructures, federal government, and general public. The guide is intended to provide a comprehensive understanding of the cybersecurity challenges and opportunities in critical infrastructure, and to help these stakeholders make informed decisions about how to protect their assets.

In conclusion, cybersecurity is a critical issue for critical infrastructure, and the incoming administration and members of critical infrastructure communities must prioritize cybersecurity, combat emerging threats, craft meaningful policy, and consider modernization and nascent technologies. The ICIT's guide is designed to help these stakeholders achieve these goals and provide a comprehensive understanding of the cybersecurity challenges and opportunities in critical infrastructure.
