We explore the process followed in formulating the South African CII (Critical Information Infrastructure) identification criteria and its application. We report on a three pronged approach that defines National Security, severity of CII security incidents and roles and responsibilities for CII protection. Our Criteria assumes the existence of basic ICT security roles within a country as per application of the South African criteria and its suitability for a country with limited resources. We conclude by recommending a CII protection approach that is best suited for developing countries based on our experiences.
