Building A Resilient Defense Industrial Base
“The overarching goal of the National Infrastructure Protection
Plan (NIPP) is to BUILD a safer, more secure, and more RESILIENT America by enhancing protection of the
Nation’s critical infrastructure and key resources
(CI/KR) to prevent, deter, neutralize, or mitigate the effects of deliberate
efforts by terrorists to destroy, incapacitate, or exploit them; and to
strengthen national preparedness, timely response, and rapid recovery
in the event of an attack, natural disaster, or other emergency.” (NIPP, June 2006)
Uninterrupted performance of those critical research and development, design,
production and maintenance activities collectively known as the “Defense Industrial
Base” (DIB) is critical to the Department of Defense ability to ensure the
continuous availability of those products and services critical to its world-wide mission.
The Department of Defense is charged by the President to collaborate with defense
industry owners and operators to:
- Identify critical DIB assets
- Conduct or facilitate vulnerability assessments of the sector
- Encourage risk management strategies to protect against and
mitigate the effects of attacks, natural disasters or other emergencies
- Encourage development of information-sharing mechanisms
DIBCIP 2007

collaboration and mutual understanding of the critical roles of
the federal, state and municipal governments, and defense industry
owners and operators in BUILDING A RESILIENT DEFENSE INDUSTRIAL BASE
