Abstract

A large number of gas facilities across the territory of Slovak Republic could be the target of criminal actions, a lot of them could be easily sabotaged. These facilities are usually located in isolated places (away from the towns and cities), thus making them subject to attacks and violent actions. Despite existing protection on those facilities, they are still vulnerable to being attacked or completely destroyed by intruders. This paper addresses the above listed problems and offers some recommendations and potential solutions to increase the security level of gas facilities, which are part of Critical Infrastructure of Slovak Republic.
