The Centre for the Protection of Critical National Infrastructure and the UK Cyber Security Strategy include in their definition of critical national infrastructure (CNI) communications, emergency services, energy, finance, food, government and public services, health, transport and water. Taking this definition as its starting point, this report asks whether the various agencies, bodies and individuals involved recognize the significance of the cyber stakeholder status that has been conferred upon them. How do these organizations identify and measure their cyber dependencies, and how well and systematically do they manage the risks and mitigate the potential vulnerabilities associated with these dependencies?

Economic Strategies and Public Policy Alternatives
'Overall, this book fills a gap in the literature by providing a systematic and thorough analysis of the impacts of cyber threats on the corporate world. Its policy recommendations are sound and well supported by the research. . . the book also managed to weave together computer science, public policy, and economics in such a way that the arguments from each discipline are enhanced by the others. This book would be an excellent text for courses focused on computer technology, business security, cyber security, or those that examine the economic costs associated with high technology. . . Outside of academia, the book would provide valuable insights about the threats, tools to counter them, government regulations, and varying approaches to cyber security to corporate leaders and information technology decision-makers. Finally, members of government who are working in relevant fields would benefit greatly from the information provided and the policy recommendations made by the authors.' - Alethia H. Cook, Journal of Homeland Security and Emergency Management

Jake Sage owns and runs a Cyber Security firm that serves to protect data. In many ways his means are almost as unscrupulous as the hackers he goes after and he makes no pretense that he is in it for the money. While he is a man of the future he is also a throwback as Jake is a rugged outdoorsman that in many ways wants to return to a more simple time. In this time there are powerful groups that seek to control all the data and thus control the world. Jake and his team are confronted with just such an attempt and he must decide what the right course to follow is." --from back cover.
