The cornerstone of the NIPP is its risk analysis and management framework. NIPP 2013 builds upon and updates the risk management framework.
This framework consists of several components, including three interwoven elements of critical infrastructure (physical, cyber and human) and five steps toward implementing the risk management framework.
The elements are integrated through information sharing feedback loop, as appropriate. In addition, this framework minimizes the number of steps or “chevrons” by including prioritization with the implementation of risk management activities.
