New Look

Police is an organization mainly identified as the authority responsible for public order and safety. Providing the country with the appropriate level of security requires a new look at the role of the authorities, including the police, involved in security matters. New, so far non-existing threats result from human dependence upon scientific and technological achievements. Efficient sectors such as energy, fuel, transportation, telecommunications, finance, health care, or any other sector ensuring continuity of public administration bodies, make our lives easier but at the same time pose a great threat to public order and safety. Additional threats result from interdependencies among elements of particular sectors, which we remain unaware of. The provision of relevant protective measures and identification of tasks assigned to the authorities involved in security pose a challenge not only to services and guards, but also to enterprises and public administration bodies involved in the development of regulations related to critical infrastructure protection as well as those which introduce regulations, guidelines or procedures.

Abstract: The growing scientific interest in the field of critical infrastructure protection has been determined by society's growing dependence on the essential services provided by these infrastructures. Critical infrastructures do not work isolated, they establish complex and dynamic networks of interdependencies. A critical infrastructure is itself a system with its own components and operating principles, a system connected to a system of systems based on multiple determinations. Critical infrastructure systems are built based on interdependent relationships between infrastructures, manifesting itself as an open system that relates to the macro-social system. Critical infrastructure systems behave dynamically and react to external stimuli represented by threats. Interdependencies between critical infrastructures generate new vulnerabilities and threats, based on the spread of effects and consequences. A comprehensive approach for critical infrastructure risks requires a systemic approach, taking into account that the interconnection of critical infrastructure objectives also involves the interconnection of threats and vulnerabilities.

Term "critical infrastructure" became part of the post-Cold War security discourse when the first legal and political acts, containing this term, emerged. The Law on Critical Infrastructure in the Republic of Serbia was adopted in 2018, and some of the most important issues regulated by the Law are the competences and responsibilities of entities in the critical infrastructure protection system. The subject of our research was security management in the field of critical infrastructure protection. As a result of the research in the paper: 1. Levels, types and competencies of security management in the field of critical infrastructure protection have been identified; 2. Their mutual relationship has been determined and 3. Recommendations of measures and solutions that need to be taken in order to establish an integrated protection system in this area have been given.
