The increasing complexity and interconnectivity of KRITIS systems increases the risk of cross-network cascade effects due to local damage. Coupled digital twins of supply networks and buildings make it possible to virtually depict different what-if scenarios and assess their impact on specific security situations.

Procedures for data-based reconnaissance, communication, and operational command support emergency services in dealing with complex threat situations. The interoperability of command and control systems is particularly important given federal responsibilities and the security forces' country-specific equipment.

Human behavior and technical faults can cause hazardous situations at major events. Simulations support the planning-approval-implementation process, i.e., the assessment of the safety infrastructure, possible hazards, and countermeasures. The protection of personal rights is of particular importance here.

Simulations help to better understand the interplay of communication, reception, and behavior in the population and to increase the subjective perception of security, as well as acceptance of and trust in measures. Privacy and security-by-design approaches are essential here.

Virtual and hybrid deployment scenarios allow realistic determination of security measures, taking into account people's direct interactions. Security technologies are thus tested for their suitability for use.

The simulation modules developed by Fraunhofer SIRIOS can be used to analyze the effects of complex socio-technical threats or disasters and derive procedures for strengthening social resilience. To this end, the simulation modules can be selected and assembled like a building blocks kit. The possibility of flexibly linking the modules enables both a focused individual view and a systemic overall view of major emergencies and their effects.
