Abstract

Količina digitalnih podatkov, proizvedenih v zadnjem desetletju ali dveh, se je zaradi digitalizacije gradbene industrije bistveno povečala. Digitalizacija je del disruptivnih inovacij, ki ustvarjajo različne priložnosti za sektor, zlasti z uvajanjem metodologije in tehnologije BIM. Zaradi tako radikalnih inovacij se pojavljajo vprašanja kibernetske varnosti, ki lahko ogrožajo informacijsko infrastrukturo z uničujočimi učinki, kot so uničenje datotek, izguba občutljivih podatkov in kraja intelektualne lastnine. Splošni cilj naloge je raziskati vprašanja varnosti, posebej varnosti skupnih podatkovnih okolij (CDE) za občutljive nepremične, konkretno kaznilnice in zapore. Z analitično metodo naloga preiskuje literatura o kibernetski varnosti s poudarki na digitalnih okoljih za načrtovanje zaporov: najprej naloga opravi pregled literature v zvezi z BIM in kibernetsko varnostjo; razišče in opravi kvantitativno zbiranje podatkov v zvezi z zapori in varnostnimi izzivi, ki vključujejo infrastrukturo, ki omogoča pretok informacij v fazi načrtovanja projekta; na koncu opravi analizo ranljivosti CDE in predlaga varnostne ukrepe za zmanjšanje tveganj kibernetske varnosti. Naloga ugotavlja, da so postopki kibernetske varnosti za zaščito skupnega digitalnega okolja še na začetku. Dalje naloga ugotavlja, da so ranljivosti CDE neposredno povezane s kritičnostjo celotne infrastrukture procesa načrtovanja stavb. Zajema človeške vire, fizične in digitalne sisteme. Samo zaščita celotne infrastrukture je način za zagotovitev varnosti CDE. Študij te problematike bi kazalo nadaljevati z izdelanimi vprašalniki, ki bi preverili stanje v praksi in z razvojem "modela varnostne zrelosti", ki bi industriji omogočili preverjanje ustreznosti pristopa k organizaciji kibernetske varnosti.

Secondary abstract:	Digital data volume produced in the last decade or two has been increasing substantially due to the digitisation of the construction industry. The digitisation process is part of disruptive innovations, which create diverse opportunities for the sector, particularly through the adoption of the BIM methodology and technology. Along with the disruptive innovations, there emerge cybersecurity issues that may compromise an organization infrastructure with devastating effects such as file destruction, sensitive data loss and theft of intellectual property, citing just a few examples. To that effect, this study has the general goal to investigate the cybersecurity issues involving the CDE of sensitive assets, particularly case, penal buildings. Through the analytical method, it shall be investigated the cybersecurity issues involving the collaborative digital environment of penal buildings: at first, it makes a literature review to understand the %state-of-art% regarding BIM and cybersecurity; then it investigates and performes a quantitative data collection relating to penal buildings and the security challenges involving the infrastructure which enables the information flow during the project design phase; at the end, it performs an analysis upon the CDE vulnerabilities, proposing security measures to mitigate cybersecurity risks. This research concludes that the adoption of cybersecurity procedures to protect the collaborative digital environment of a sensitive asset is still at its beginnings. It stresses that the CDE vulnerabilities are directly related to the criticality of the whole infrastructure of the building design process, i.e. it embraces the %Human Sources%, the %Physical% and the %Digital% systems. Thus, protecting the whole infrastructure is a way to assure protection of the CDE. In the future the application of the research questionnaires developed for this study is suggested, and the development of a %maturity model% to measure and classify the organization's cybersecurity approach.
