Short description Critical Infrastructure Protection in Homeland Security: Defending a Networked Nation is a definitive textbook on critical infrastructure protection. While the emphasis is on the development of policies that lead to successful prevention of terrorist attacks on the nation's infrastructure, this book is the first scientific study of critical infrastructures and their protection. It uniquely applies network theory, optimization theory, and simulation software to analyze and understand how various infrastructure sectors evolve, what makes them vulnerable, and how they can be harden.
