This paper proposes a maturity model for measuring the readiness levels of national critical infrastructure protection efforts. The development of the model involves two steps. The first step analyzes data about national cyber security projects using grounded theory to extract the root causes of the susceptibility of critical infrastructures to cyber threats. The results are realistic and intuitively appealing, demonstrating that the maturity model is useful for evaluating the national critical infrastructure protection preparedness.
