Cyber threats to critical national infrastructure

When discussing the issue of terrorism, cyber threats to critical national infrastructure, WLAN, I hold that there are two open questions: why and how does this happen? To the question why the competent people to give answer are sociologists, communicologists, political scientists and others, while to the question how this can be carried out in modern world and how to protect us the answer should be given by ICT experts. Wireless technology is prevailing tool in communications today, above all due to its mobility, but also due to its omnipresence as it relies on ground-based stations and communication satellites. What should be our special concern are the information systems in the domain of critical national infrastructure which, due to insecure communications, can be threatened especially by terrorists. Including some wireless communication platforms in information systems of critical national infrastructure and analysis of the most frequent ones, make prerequisites for their safe integration into information and communication infrastructure. The final question discussed in this paper arises here: how to legally fight new security threats coming along with new information-communication technologies?
