“RESISTO: Resilience Enhancement and Risk Control Platform for Communication Infrastructure Operators.“
The article “RESISTO: Resilience Enhancement and Risk Control Platform for Communication Infrastructure Operators” was published in the number 41 of the POLARIS Innovation Journal*.
The article is edited by Emanuele Aonzo and Alberto Neri from LEONARDO – Cyber Security Division.
The Authors explain how RESISTO provides an innovative solution to the complex issue of CI protection as it proposes a global and integrated approach to the physical and cyber security of complex systems, by applying the best state-of-the-art technologies.
RESISTO combines a structured process to identify and protect the CI, as well as a Command & Control platform to promptly detect threatening events, support decision making and drive the reaction until complete recovery. The CI continuous improvement in resilience is addressed by the analytical and quantitative approach adopted.
ABSTRACT:
“The RESISTO platform is a Critical Infrastructure Protection solution designed to ensure drastic improvement in business continuity and management in case of physical, cyber and cyber-physical threats. The platform operates through two components: a Long Term and a Short Term Control Loop. The off-line Long Term Control Loop identifies the threats to which the Critical Infrastructure is most vulnerable; it is based on quantitative assessment of the resilience, and designs the necessary measures so that the Critical Infrastructure can deal with threats while guaranteeing the required levels of service. The Short Term Control Loop is mainly based on the Leonardo SC2 platform, which provides run-time operators with a system capable of detecting and collecting events and alarms; it promptly assesses cascading effects on the Critical Infrastructure and services provided, supports the Decision Making and guides the reaction to alarms until their complete recovery. The use of RESISTO ensures increase in the resilience of the Critical Infrastructure, better choice of countermeasures and reactions to be implemented and reduction in terms of time and its associated costs.”
