Abstract: Abstract Security of a society has become one of urgent issues in contemporary world. Too frequently we started encountering one or another form of malicious behaviour, criminal activities or terrorism. New and complex threats highlight the need for further synergies and closer cooperation at all levels. Awareness, preparedness and resilience of societies emerge as key preconditions of further secure and sustainable economic development and general well-being. A special attention in those conditions has to be paid to development of theoretically grounded approach to protection of critical infrastructure (CIP), damage or disruption of which can be immensely harmful to unprepared and therefore vulnerable institutions and society. The aim of this paper was to lay theoretical foundations for theoretically grounded approach towards research in CIP area, in order to formulate, ultimately, a roadmap of action, which, employing leadership societal stakeholders would allow to enhance awareness of society actors about the threats, for example to develop ability to recognize, prevent, and, in case of disaster, to resist to consequences of critical infrastructure infringement. Hence, enhanced resilience of society to critical infrastructure infringement is and ultimate goal of fostering of leadership for critical infrastructure protection.
