The key objectives identified for this area are: CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE SYSTEMS ARE RESILIENT IN THE FACE OF CURRENT AND FUTURE CYBER THREATS The protection of the nation’s critical infrastructure is a priority and will of necessity require collaboration of all relevant stakeholders. The critical infrastructure community includes public and private entities which provide information and services which underpin the social and economic well-being of a nation. Today almost all infrastructures are becoming increasingly dependent on IT or industrial control systems (ICS) and, in many cases, both IT and ICS that guarantee their smooth and reliable operations. This Strategy will ensure that action is taken to adequately secure these systems from attacks and if penetrated there are measures in place for minimal downtime. 20 National Cyber Security Strategy Government of Jamaica
