Description

This article introduces an innovative simulator for critical infrastructure, developed to enable comprehensive
simulation of data and power grid and their interconnections. The simulator offers user-input functionality,
allowing for detailed modelling and analysis of various impact scenarios on infrastructures. A key feature
of this tool is the use of a state matrix to represent the current state of infrastructures, which is updated
after each simulation. This update facilitates accurate and dynamic modelling of changes in infrastructure
networks and their interconnections.
The simulator is designed to test the functionality of both individual components and the overall network
integrity, including the analysis of the cascading failures, where a failure in one part can impact other parts
of the infrastructure. This capability is essential for a deeper understanding of risks and for developing
effective strategies to protect and ensure the resilience of critical infrastructures. The simulator represents a
significant advancement in the field of critical infrastructure simulation, providing a tool for better prediction,
identification, and mitigation of potential threats, thereby enhancing the security and resilience of critical
systems.
