Critical infrastructure assessment tool for local governments in Canada

In 2014-2015, representatives from the JIBC Emergency Management Division and the Centre for Applied Research engaged with Emergency Management British Columbia and Defence Research and Development Canada – Centre for Security Science on the development and completion of a critical infrastructure assessment tool for use by local governments. The aim of the tool is to enhance a municipality’s awareness and understanding of CI, and assist them with identifying and analyzing their assets, outputs goods and services, relevant hazards that may impact their assets, and the dependencies among assets, output goods & services, external CI service providers, and the community.
