Summary/Abstract: This paper wants to define the concepts of critical infrastructure, whether military or territorial, but mostly what is the meaning of critical infrastructure protection and which are the policies of Romania, NATO and the European Union in this regard. Criticalinfrastructure protection is necessary in a world with more and more danger, in which you do not know the time and the place most prone to a terrorist attack or natural disaster. Given the conditions of an increasing and various numbers of threats, countries need to modernize the national infrastructure protection field. This thing can not be done without public support, and also a well-informed population. There is also need for harmonization between national policies and European or international policies in this regard. Eliminating as many vulnerabilities of critical infrastructure would make a terrorist attack on a state to be less likely, and if it still occurs to cause less damage and induce less panic and terror.
