Launch of Critical Infrastructure Protection & Resilience Asia

Following a successful launch and first European conference on Critical Infrastructure Protection & Resilience, Torch Marketing, in collaboration with KNM Media launch Critical Infrastructure Protection & Resilience Asia in Bangkok, Thailand on 24th-25th June 2015.

London, United Kingdom, August 04, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Southeast Asia has seen a rise in insurgency-related attacks and terrorist activities, creating uncertainty and insecurity on critical national infrastructure.

Climate change has also seen more extreme weather patterns, creating additional hazardous, unseasonal and unpredictable conditions and a severe strain on infrastructure.

On a country level, there are strategies to deal with infrastructure protection issues. On a regional level, there is the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Agreement on Disaster Management and Emergency Response (AADMER), under which several teams have been set up to deal with disaster management in general, but none is geared towards the protection of critical infrastructure.

Cyber security is also becoming more prevalent, and as more critical infrastructure becomes connected to the internet and exposed to the dangers of cyber security attacks, new strategies and systems need to be developed to mitigate these threats.

Critical Infrastructure Protection and Resilience Asia will bring together leading stakeholders from industry, operators, agencies and governments to collaborate on securing Asia. The conference will look at developing existing national or international legal and technical frameworks, integrating good risk management, strategic planning and implementation.

Critical Infrastructure Protection and Resilience Asia will also offer limited exhibiting and sponsorship opportunities to commercial organisations supplying solutions and support services to government and operators tasked with protecting critical national infrastructure.
