THE ISSUE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES WITHIN CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURES

Abstract

Abstract: Taking into account the need for computerisation and process automation within critical infrastructures, a whole process of choosing the most appropriate software technologies is born, both in terms of security, but also in terms of costs and development opportunities. This problem is encountered by all states, but also by private companies, has favoured the creation of an environment conducive to the development of computing technologies in three directions, namely: in-house software, open-source technologies and proprietary technologies. The current challenge is to find medium and long-term solutions for the rapid interconnection or redesign of these three types of information technology in order to process data from government systems, in order to perform complex analyses that can meet current needs, keeping in -an equable balance of costs and security level and identifying the most effective solution.
