Mission

The Alaska Partnership for Infrastructure Protection, APIP, works to integrate the private and public sector critical infrastructure owners into the municipal, state, and federal emergency framework, participating in all stages of the disaster cycle, from preparedness and mitigation through to response and recovery. APIP’s purpose is to improve Alaska’s emergency management capabilities through the following:

  • Resource identification
  • Information sharing and management
  • Infrastructure sector characterization to understand and address vulnerabilities, dependencies, and potential single points of failure
  • Provide awareness of physical security, cyber security, law enforcement, and anti-terrorism threats
  • Strengthen individual business’s response capacity
  • Team building and partnering for exercises
  • Make recommendations for priorities of protection, support, and recovery of critical infrastructure
  • Provide a safe partnership environment for Critical Infrastructure owners/operators to increase resiliency statewide

To accomplish these broad mission areas, APIP will:

  • Establish infrastructure maps
  • Share infrastructure information with APIP partners, as required
  • Foster a planning and response environment for critical infrastructure resource holders
  • Develop internal communications procedures
  • Conduct various types of exercises and training opportunities
