Critical information infrastructure protection (CIIP) has long been an area of concern, from its beginnings with the creation of the Internet to recent high-profile distributed denial-of-service attacks against critical systems. Critical systems rely heavily on information infrastructures; a disruption of the information infrastructure can hinder the operation of critical systems. The developed nations have mature CIIP solutions in place, but these solutions are not always suitable for developing countries, where unique challenges and requirements have to be addressed. Meanwhile, the developing nations are experiencing un-precedented growth of their information infrastructures. However, the lack of national CIIP efforts creates a situation for developing nations to become launch pads for cyber attacks. This paper discusses the need for CIIP in developing nations. It examines the current state and future development of information infrastructures in these nations and outlines a number of CIIP requirements. |
