Defesa cibernética em infraestruturas críticas: estratégias avançadas para mitigação de ameaças

Abstract

This study investigates the cyber defense of critical infrastructures (CI), focusing on advanced strategies for threat mitigation and increasing the resilience of these infrastructures, especially in the energy sector. The research addresses the analysis of risks and vulnerabilities in CI and discusses the application of simulations and war games in SCADA systems to improve cyber defense through training and capacity building, demonstrating how these methodologies can reinforce cyber defense and the resilience of CI. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of compliance with national cybersecurity policies in CI and sectoral government guidelines, ensuring that the practices adopted are aligned with established standards and regulations. The relevance of this study lies in its contribution to national security and the preservation of CI, vital to the country's sovereignty, arguing that simulations and wargaming exercises are effective tools for enhancing cybersecurity and resilience in CIs without compromising their physical integrity.
