Abstract: A method is proposed to assess critical infrastructures vulnerabilities, in terms of derived indicators for system evolution and its future states. Different classes of distortions are further monitored for the purpose of estimating the relative frequency of a system failure by using the ||Dashboard|| concept.

Keywords: vulnerability; resilience; system modelling; dashboard; decision support system; DSS; critical infrastructures; business systems; risk assessment.
