Abstract

Theoretical, especially ontological approach to security examining in sector of critical, infrastructure is associated with a clear description of the object of interest, the expression of the principle of ontological security. Object of interest is the critical infrastructure sector, systematically organized into sub-elements and, as well as clarifying what the protection security is, what are its attributes and factors. The subject of research will be also interactions between security factors and their impact on the security situation. Clarification of ontological principles is to identify and to describe the causes that allow or give the security reason for existence, therefore something exists or may exist.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Critical line of detection is the latest option detection disruption to effective intervention of units of physical protection (Intervention Unit).

  2. 2.

    Line of areas endangered of object is distance from limit of the object, from which the object or protected interest can endanger. If is protected interest in the object, is this limit determined by inside arrangement protected areas.
