Determination of threats to the world’s energy supply through the concept and objectives of infocommunication strategies

Abstract

An observable phenomenon nowadays is the rise of increasingly complex systems not only in our own lives, but also in our industrial infrastructures. Moreover, for the sake of manageability and comfort, these systems were connected to each other through various channels. This increased their Vulnerability, so much so that terrorism moved more and more towards attacking critical infrastructure. Terrorists realized that with relatively few resources and from a distance, how great a blow could be inflicted on a selected country's most important objects. The article highlights the strategies and ideologies of the dominant countries in cyberspace. Furthermore, it provides a comparison of these countries, but with particular attention to the forward-looking regulations between European Union and Hungary. Finally, the courses of action that can be used to reduce the risk factors of the energy supply of European Union and Hungary as a member country are determined at a strategic level.
