Objectification of Criteria for a Critical Infrastructure Elements in the Rail Transport Sub-sector

Transport has become a daily need of mankind, people go home, or to the family, to the friends, and commodities from destination to destination. Humankind as such is dependent on all modes of a transport. Transport is a part of the Critical Infrastructure sectors and has the following subsectors: road transport, air transport, water transport and rail transport. The issue of objectified identification of infrastructure objects as elements of a critical infrastructure in rail transport is a little addressed in the Slovak Republic. When exploring identification issues, it is necessary to analyze foreign sources and propose solutions as important railway infrastructure objects to be among the potential elements of critical infrastructure in the transport sector. These suggestions will be tested and my own solution will consist of multiple views that will be more closely described in the work. (C) 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
