Abstract
Abstract - Proper functioning of a nation’s economy and society requires that its critical infrastructure is safe and secure. The protection of critical infrastructure is becoming a growing concern to national governments, infrastructure managers and local authorities. Hence, the need to develop a framework for evaluating the safety of these critical infrastructures. Critical infrastructures are interconnected and therefore face a myriad of vulnerabilities and threats. A comprehension of these vulnerabilities is essential in developing a framework for evaluating security levels of critical infrastructures. In addition to evaluating how safe and secure the infrastructure is, a framework is essential in for identifying security gaps that need to be addressed. This paper proposes a framework for rating critical infrastructure’s security level using weighted variables. Keywords - Critical Infrastructure, Security Rating, Vulnerability Assessment
