Recital 1
(1) Electronic communications, infrastructure and services are an essential factor in economic and societal development. They play a vital role for society and have become ubiquitous utilities in the same way that electricity or water supplies are. Their disruption has the potential to cause considerable economic and social damage, underlining the importance of measures to increase protection and resilience aimed at ensuring continuity of critical services. The security of electronic communications, infrastructure and services, in particular their integrity and availability, faces continuously expanding challenges. This is of increasing concern to society not least because of the possibility of problems due to system complexity, accidents, mistakes and attacks that may have consequences for the physical infrastructure which delivers services critical to the well-being of European citizens.
