The significance of critical infrastructure, which is defined as devices, service institutions, as well as other areas that have a pertinent meaning on the sense of security of the citizens and the efficient functioning of the national economy, has gained new importance in recent years. The lessons learned from recent military conflicts and terrorist attacks, as well as analysis of events caused by natural disasters clearly demonstrate that disruption of the regular functioning of the individual elements of critical infrastructure might have a negative impact on its functioning as a single system. A wide spectrum of possible evaluating threats trigger development of new and effective solutions for protecting the critical infrastructure.
