Information and Communications Sector Sample Clauses

Information and Communications Sector. The information and communications sector refers to the sector handling all satellite, wireless and terrestrial broadcasting and handling of electrical signals over metallic wires, radio waves through the air and space, and light signals through optical fibres [218]. The fundamental principle of the communications sector is the ability to transmit information over a distance (Ibid). The communications sector thus includes the broadcasting of TV signals, mobile networks and the Internet (Ibid). The sector is typically owned and operated by the private sector, which provides the expertise for building, maintaining and improving the sector, though with governmental oversight. The communications sector is an integral component of critical national infrastructure (CNI) as it provides an enabling function across the entire critical infrastructure [211]. Societal importance The communications sector has evolved from a provider of voice services into an extremely complex and diverse industry that is interconnected through all layers of society, utilizing satellite, wireless and terrestrial communication transmission systems. Social life in a country is thus highly dependent on the communications sector in terms of being able to broadcast television in private homes and for people to be able to text each other or surf the Internet on their handsets or home devices [212].
