Recent studies conclude that owners and operators of critical infrastructures, as well as governments, do not disclose reliable information related to cybersecurity risks and that cybersecurity specialists manipulate cognitive limitations to overdramatize and oversimplify cybersecurity risks to critical infrastructures. This article applies a design science perspective to the challenge of securing critical infrastructure by developing a process anchored around evidence-based design principles. The proposed process is expected to enable learning across critical infrastructures, improve the way risks to critical infrastructure are communicated, and improve the quality of the responses to citizens’ demands for their governments to collect, validate, and disseminate reliable information on cybersecurity risks to critical infrastructures. These results will be of interest to the general public, vulnerable populations, owners and operators of critical infrastructures, and various levels of governments worldwide. 10aadvanced persistent threats10acritical infrastructures10acybersecurity10adesign propositions10adesign science10aresilience1 aMuegge, Steven1 aCraigen, Dan  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/90202761nas a2200289   4500008004100000022001400041245012200055210006900177260004200246300001000288490000600298520190700304653000902211653003102220653001302251653002902264653001802293653000902311653000902320653000902329653002302338100001702361700001902378700001902397700001902416856003602435       2015                        eng d  a1927-032100aSecure by Design: Cybersecurity Extensions to Project Management Maturity Models for Critical Infrastructure Projects0 aSecure by Design Cybersecurity Extensions to Project Management   aOttawabTalent First Networkc06/2015  a26-340 v53 aMany systems that comprise our critical infrastructures – including electricity, transportation, healthcare, and financial systems – are designed and deployed as information technology (IT) projects using project management practices. IT projects provide a one-time opportunity to securely "design in" cybersecurity to the IT components of critical infrastructures. The project management maturity models used by organizations today to assess the quality and rigour of IT project management practices do not explicitly consider cybersecurity. This article makes three contributions to address this gap. First, it develops the argument that cybersecurity can and should be a concern of IT project managers and assessed in the same way as other project management capabilities. Second, it examines three widely used cybersecurity maturity models – i) the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) framework for improving critical infrastructure cybersecurity, ii) the United States Department of Energy’s Cybersecurity Capability Maturity Model (C2M2), and iii) the CERT Resilience Management Model (CERT RMM) from the Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute – to identify six cybersecurity themes that are salient to IT project management. Third, it proposes a set of cybersecurity extensions to PjM3, a widely-deployed project management maturity model. The extensions take the form of a five-level cybersecurity capability perspective that augments the seven standard perspectives of the PjM3 by explicitly assessing project management capabilities that impact the six themes where IT project management and cybersecurity intersect. This article will be relevant to IT project managers, the top management teams of organizations that design and deploy IT systems for critical infrastructures, and managers at organizations that provide and maintain critical infrastructures.10aC2M210acapability maturity models10aCERT RMM10acritical infrastructures10acybersecurity10aNIST10aP3M310aPjM310aproject management1 aPayette, Jay1 aAnegbe, Esther1 aCaceres, Erika1 aMuegge, Steven  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/904
