• In order to ensure safer, more secure, and resilient localities and regions in the Commonwealth of Virginia, there exists a need to effectively protect the Commonwealth's critical infrastructure and key resources (CIKR). The contribution of this work is a creation of a set of exploratory simulation models that help investigate the impact of various policy measures on the security of major stakeholders involved in CIKR protection. We show that under certain circumstances, all stakeholders benefit from more cost-effective CIKR risk management through sharing of information related to CIKR threats and vulnerabilities of CIKR owners. We conclude by suggesting modifications of government regulations and current laws that could improve the efficacy of the information-sharing framework that is inherent to critical infrastructure protection.
