Abstract

Critical infrastructure and services in financial industry are important for our society and the financial industry starts to understand the topic beyond the normal and well maintained Business Continuity Management and Disaster Recovery Plans (BCM & DRP). Today, the international backbone financial infrastructures operate pretty well, but in the infrastructure towards clients, two issues are utmost critical for the banks: Drive By Download and Phishing; both are related to steeling identity and money via e-banking. This is one of the results achieved by the EU project Parsifal (Protection and Trust in Financial Infrastructure (Parsifal-Team, 2010), for compositing a research agenda for the cyber security of the financial industry.

Keywords: Critical Information Infrastructure Protection, Financial Industry, Resilience and Robustness, CIP, CIIP
