The modern world is characterized by increasing complexity and a wide variety of challenges. The protection of critical infrastructures is therefore a top priority. The upcoming critical infrastructure law aims to ensure and strengthen the resilience and operational continuity of essential facilities. In this blog, you will learn about the importance of preventive fire protection in this context – and how device-integrated fire protection in particular can play a key role.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

With the future critical infrastructure law, the federal government will implement a corresponding EU regulation. The Federal Ministry of the Interior and Home Affairs itself writes: “This draft law will identify critical infrastructures at federal level for the first time and define minimum standards for the physical protection of critical infrastructure operators. This is intended to strengthen the resilience of critical infrastructures against threats in Germany as a whole.”<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Implementation of the EU Directive CER | EU 2022\/2557<\/strong>
\nThe critical infrastructure law serves to implement the European legislation on the protection of critical facilities (EU Directive CER | EU 2022\/2557) at national level. This law requires critical infrastructure operators to develop resilience plans as part of their strategy for operational and organizational resilience.<\/p>\n

The EU Directive on the protection of critical facilities (EU 2022\/2557), introduced at the end of 2022, sets out specific requirements for resilience. Following its adoption, EU member states are required to transpose these provisions into national law by mid-October 2024 at the latest.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

The law formulates cross-sectoral objectives aimed at preventing disruptions, minimizing the impact of such incidents and enabling the restoration of operational capability. In order to achieve these goals, operators of essential facilities are required to respond to specific risks with appropriate measures, which are to be set out in resilience plans. The law also provides for regular risk assessments.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
