Popis: National policies, strategies, doctrines and laws have a different approach to the issue of critical infrastructure. The adequately designed infrastructure is the main driving force of national prosperity and a precondition for economic expansion and future growth. On the other hand, everyday life in modern times is based, among other things, on highly developed infrastructure, especially in the fields of management and control of energy supply, provision of drinking water sources, transport, maintenance of information technology systems, telecommunications, etc. The paper considers the issue of critical infrastructure protection on the example of the Republic of Serbia. In this regard, critical infrastructure will be considered through changes in the strategic and normative framework. Historically, the subject area has long been directly related to the defence needs of the state. This is partly expected having in mind that the phrase critical infrastructure is taken from military terminology to denote everything necessary for the functioning of military system during military conflicts, when resources are directed to the preservation of one's own facilities, systems and networks, and also their disabling on the enemy side. However, in modern times, critical infrastructure has gained much broader meaning and significance for the functioning of the state and society as a whole.
