Fyzická bezpečnost kritické infrastruktury

Abstract

The objective of this bachelor thesis is the study of a critical infrastructure element from the point of view of physical security, followed by a variant design of a physical security system. In this thesis, methods of describing both physical security and critical infrastructure and their elements are used. This is followed by their analysis using domestic and foreign sources. The analysis includes a description and analysis of each area of critical infrastructure and the method of protection most often used to secure this vital infrastructure. The result of this work is the actual proposal of a physical security system for the selected critical infrastructure element. This selection is preceded by a security risk assessment. For the purpose of this thesis, this element is chosen to be a model 110/22 kV electrical substation, which is located in an urban area of 20 000 households. This fulfils the conditions for determining critical infrastructure elements, according to Government Regulation No. 432/2010 Coll., on criteria for determining critical infrastructure elements. This proposal is drawn up in three variants. Option A is focused on highly resilient perimeter protection, Option B is an extension of Option A with a comprehensive video surveillance system and Option C proposes security through physical security. The conclusion of this bachelor thesis is an economic and variant comparison. From this comparison, one option emerges as the most suitable for securing a specific element of critical infrastructure from the energy sector.
