abstract = "In this final {\textquoteleft}outlook{\textquoteright} chapter, I pull out three main issues that should be taken home as the main lessons of this book. Firstly, I draw attention on the importance of the art of critical infrastructure protection (CIP) as an effort to {\textquoteleft}control the uncontrollable{\textquoteright}. Secondly, I highlight the urgent need of a {\textquoteleft}critical{\textquoteright} critical infrastructure protection approach that steers away from the solely technocratic approach chosen so far. And thirdly, I conclude with the warning that a focus on counter-terrorism technology as a {\textquoteleft}silver bullet{\textquoteright} to the detriment of addressing the root causes of terrorism might lead to an {\textquoteleft}arms race{\textquoteright} between terrorists and counter-terrorists that cannot possibly be won especially not by us ordinary citizens who might well end up {\textquoteleft}temporarily{\textquoteright} surrendering civil rights in vain, and without getting them back any time soon since the war on terrorism is an interminable one.",
