Critical infrastructures are complex operating environments that often require special protection and security.A successful security strategy design should adhere to the principles of durability, integrity, and regularity.In the European Union, there is a strong interest in the security of critical infrastructures, especially those with interdependence.Given the fact that critical infrastructures play an essential role in a country's economy, it makes them even more vulnerable.The main aim of this article is to analyze the critical infrastructures' cyber security policy.The creation of a security strategy requires identification of the needs for equipment, mode of operation, and required security level.It has to establish rules for precise operation and handling of situations.The article tackles the issues of security strategy for critical infrastructures to protect sensitive areas and sectors.In addition, a cybersecurity policy as a countermeasure is discussed.

Acceleration of scientific and technical progress, speeding up of technological changes, IT process globalisation and integration of OT processes invoked new challenges in preparing cyber strategies.Issues with adapting strategy for a particular specificity, region and specific cyber-attacks are not applicable.Therefore, a natural need arises to adjust the process for future cyber-attacks.It should be noted that the vast majority of organisations still need to possess a strategy that has been developed in correlation with future cyber-attacks.A part of organisations, irrespective of the lack of methodology and necessary infrastructure at the initial stage, commenced applying strategic management methods as a more dynamic environment demanded adequate changes in the cyber security within the organisation itself.The organisation started to plan such changes because, at the initial stage of the strategic management theory development, the strategy was understood as a plan drawn up to achieve the set objectives, regardless of the future need.Implementing such strategic procedures is grounded on something other than scientific calculations and is often associated with excessive use of funds.Therefore, the main goal of this article is to determine how much the r-Interdiction Median Problem with Fortification (RIMF) module can be used as a model for deciding methods for protecting critical infrastructure systems.
The article deals with the issue of homework in general and the role of English homework in particular. Homework being a part of teaching/learning process at school plays a number of roles that are attributed to the nature and the reasons of homework assignment and the reasons are such as reinforcing material, introducing to new material, increasing skills, applying the learned in new situations, helping to improve time management skills and domestic communication . Homework helps to improve not only academic skills but it also develops learners’ personality, character features as well as social skills. The article suggests the theoretical review of the concept of homework, the role and reason of assigning the latter. It also suggests the results of the research that was performed applying two approaches of investigation: quantitative (survey with a questionnaire and statistic analysis methods) and qualitative (interview and content analysis methods). The survey that was carried out among basic school pupils revealed the fact that the pupils indicated the two types of reasons they have for doing English homework: academic reasons and social reasons. Moreover, it was concluded that basic school pupils do not argue the importance of the role of homework in the English learning process; however, they accept the fact that there are various obstacles that minimize the success of and benefit of home activities and these obstacles are of three types: academic, obstacles of management and psychological obstacles. The interview performed among basic school teachers of English allowed to state that the role the homework in the English teaching process is of great importance and there is a number of reasons for assigning it according their professional experience. The category of the reasons of allotting English homework contains the following subcategories: homework style, i.e. analysis of topic and practical nature of tasks, reasons why homework is given, i.e. using of, looking for supplementary measures, consolidation of previous topics and class work is not completed, and significance of homework, i.e. promotion of self-sufficiency and particularities of the lesson.
