Abstract:Presidential Decision Directive (PDD) 63 provides detailed guidance for the protection of America's critical infrastructures of energy, banking, transportation, human services and telecommunications as viewed in the context of the Information Age. Does PDD 63 provide the necessary framework and resources to create a viable defense of these essential services or does it simply acknowledge there is a challenge that must be addressed? This report examines the National Security Strategy concerning PDD 63 and analyzes the challenges of implementing its complex strategy in a cooperative environment between the federal government and the private sector. The complexities of relating this directive to PDD 62 (Combating Terrorism) and PDD 56 {lnteragency Cooperation) are explored in order to enhance the ways and means of implementing a cohesive strategy of infrastructure protection. The paper develops the emerging threats to this nation's infrastructure and identifies government, private sector and military implications. The paper further examines policy, doctrine and strategy for implementing critical infrastructure protection.
