Summary:
Determination of shielding efficiency in combination with knowledge of the susceptibility of the equipment located inside the shield is not sufficient for estimating the threat from intentional electromagnetic interference towards a facility or distributed system. In addition, shielding efficiency is a concept more suitable for enclosures. The physical distribution, the complexity of the system and the intent behind the disturbance call for alternative methods of classification for distributed systems. One such method, based on three key terms; Accessibility, Susceptibility and Consequence, is proposed here.
