To ensure uninterrupted railway communication with the Republic of Crimea, within the framework of the largest national infrastructure project, the construction of a transport crossing through the Kerch Strait was completed in 2018, which also includes a railway component. The article considers the regulatory legal grounds for the use of modern stationary inspection and screening complexes that allow for the inspection of freight trains plying on the railway of the transport passage through the Kerch Strait.The uniqueness of the legal regime for the protection of this structure is complemented by the use of the latest technical means of ensuring transport security to prevent the commission of unlawful encroachments in the activities of the transport complex, including stationary inspection railway complexes.The principle of operation of inspection complexes, which is based on the physical method of introscopy, is shown, and their technical characteristics are given. The use of inspection railway complexes allows the transport security forces to identify objects and substances that are prohibited or restricted for movement into the transport security zone, practically without interfering with the technological processes of freight traffic, since the scanning of wagons is carried out while the passage is moving. Modern installations at a high level reliably protect the Crimean bridge from illegal encroachments.

The uneven financial literacy of the Indonesian people indicates that there are people who have not been able to use the services of Islamic financial institutions, both financing and deposits at Islamic banks. The quality of infrastructure is still relatively poor so that the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have not been created. This study aims to determine the effect of financial inclusion on economic growth, the influence of Islamic banks on economic growth, the effect of financial inclusion on infrastructure, and the influence of Islamic banks on infrastructure. This study uses associative quantitative research, using Financial Inclusion variables (Islamic Bank Third Party Funds) and Islamic Bank variables (Islamic Banking Financing) to find out whether there is an effect of these variables on the dependent variable, namely Economic Growth (GRDP) and National Infrastructure (Length). Streets). The data collected is secondary data and time series data. In this study using panel data regression method which is processed using Eviews 9. The findings of this study are that Financial Inclusion does not have a significant effect on Economic Growth, Financial Inclusion has a significant and positive effect on National Infrastructure, Islamic Banks do not have a significant influence on Economic Growth, and Islamic Banks do not have a significant influence on National Infrastructure. In the variables of Financial Inclusion, Islamic Banks, Economic Growth and National Infrastructure, it is recommended to use other, more varied indicators so that we can all reach how far the inclusiveness of Islamic finance in Indonesia. And, be more focused and can have a positive impact on the SDGs program broadly for the national and international community.  Keywords: Financial Inclusion, Islamic Banks, Economic Growth, National Infrastructure, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

All aspects of Modern life are infrastructure-enabled. National infrastructure (NI) simultaneously: supports the realisation of societally beneficial outcomes; and determines the level of GHG emissions; air, water, noise pollution; production of solid waste and sewage. Therefore, all sustainability and resilience challenges are interdependent emergent properties arising directly or indirectly from National Infrastructure. NI is a systemically, societally, economically, globally significant leverage point. The systemic transformation of NI into a net zero enabling, resilience enhancing, sustainability supporting system is urgently needed to catalyse the speed, scale and breadth of synergistic action needed to achieve Net zero and tackle other sustainability and resilience challenges. Systemic perspectives on, and systemic characterisations of, NI; its societal purpose; and the interdependent mechanisms that enable NI to fulfil its purpose are needed to support the required systemic transformation. This paper provides these.


As societies, governments, corporations, and individuals become more dependent on the digital environment, so they also become increasingly vulnerable to misuse of that environment. A considerable industry has developed to provide the means with which to make cyberspace more secure, stable, and predictable. Cybersecurity is concerned with the identification, avoidance, management, and mitigation of risk in, or from, cyberspace—the risk of harm and damage that might occur as the result of everything from individual carelessness to organized criminality, to industrial and national security espionage, and, at the extreme end of the scale, to disabling attacks against a country’s critical national infrastructure. But this represents a rather narrow understanding of security and there is much more to cyberspace than vulnerability, risk, and threat. As well as security from financial loss, physical damage, etc., cybersecurity must also be for the maximization of benefit. The Oxford Handbook of Cybersecurity takes a comprehensive and rounded approach to the still evolving topic of cybersecurity: the security of cyberspace is as much technological as it is commercial and strategic; as much international as regional, national, and personal; and as much a matter of hazard and vulnerability as an opportunity for social, economic, and cultural growth.

Critical infrastructure cybersecurity has risen to the forefront of national policy in much of the world. These systems use information and communications technologies (ICTs) to deliver key services and opportunities central to participation in the digital economy. Not only are critical national infrastructures (CNIs) of importance to the health and well-being of citizens, they also contribute to the economic, military, and political functioning of modern societies. Targeting of these systems by cyber actors has become a commonplace concern for both experts and policymakers. This chapter addresses the state of these efforts, and their utility for defining new norms of state interaction that constrain escalation and instability in international security.
