Abstract
Purpose – in this article, the authors propose a management model for Critical Infrastructure cybersecurity, further development of a model developed by Limba, Plėta, Agafonov, and Damkus (2017).
Research methodology – methodology consists of researching the best practices in cybersecurity management for Criti-cal Infrastructures and evaluating the best element to be included. The article offers an overview of the model, including structure and objectives, and further analysis that focuses on pre-existing CI management frameworks.
Findings – main results show that, although previously published protocols and models contain valuable elements, there is still the need to implement a comprehensive model which can be applied to every type of CI.
Research limitations – research might have been limited due to the lack of a unitary approach to cybersecurity man-agement for CI, meaning the lack of possibility of reference to a similar model and approach.
Practical implications – model which is presented in the article could offer a new approach to CI protection strategies and could be the beginning of a more structured approach towards their protection.
Originality/Value – model was created by the authors with references to past published protocols and models, which are present in the quotation in the text as well as the bibliography.
