Deeming something vital / critical has a whole lot of extra baggage
attached to it.  Check out for example the OECD surveys on critical
information infrastructure.

a. http://www.oecd.org/dataoecd/49/28/40839436.pdf - OECD Seoul Declaration
for the Future of the Internet Economy,

b. http://www.oecd.org/dataoecd/25/10/40761118.pdf - comparative study of
CIIP in OECD economies (Australia, Canada, Korea, Japan, The Netherlands,
the United Kingdom and the United States)
