This deliverable presents the results of the work carried out during Task 2.3 entitled "Mechanisms of cascading threats (across multimodal ecosystem)". The main objective of the task is to develop a new methodology for analysis of interconnections and interdependencies between systems, assets and critical infrastructures, that will help model and accurately evaluate the infrastructure behaviour due to the propagation of cascading threats. In the initial project plan, this deliverable followed

However, during the first stages of the analysis it was concluded that the methodology for analysis and modelling of cascading threats should be included in the final version of the risk analysis. Therefore, with the approval of the project coordinator and the project officer, it was decided that the results on cascading threat methodology should precede the final CitySCAPE risk and threat analysis results. Therefore, D2.4 "Cascading Risks in the Multimodal Transportation Platforms" can be considered as is Part 1 of the complete CitySCAPE Risk and threat analysis focusing on cascading threats for interdependent systems. In order to carry out the development of the new methodology, during this task: • the assets for the CPaaS system architectures were identified based on the use case definition from Task 2.1 of the CitySCAPE project, • the interfaces allowing access to the assets (entry points) and the possible interdependencies among them were extracted, • the composite system assets were further analysed in basic assets, based on the implementation information extracted by D2.1. As composite assets, we define high-level assets of the composite system, composed by various types of components and subsystems, that can be furtherly decomposed in more detailed basic generic assets • the cyber threats related to the basic assets and consequently the composite CPaaS assets were identified, • the analysis of the system allowed the investigation of interdependencies l [...]
