Ok. How may ICANN help with security of some of enumerated infrastructure  

You mentioned penetration testing are you following up on the work of emerging national CERTs and AfricaCERT ? You might be able to exchange with colleagues there on these topics

Critical infrastructure to me means  any related ICT infrastructure supporting african countries critical business that if affected could have a large impact to the level that nothing will work. ie Airport , TV, Banks , Telecommunication , Applications for custom or application for salaries payments. In fact only risks analysis will help to identify such infrastructure. That is why vulnerability assessment and Penetration testing services are important to minimise the risks related to the critical indentified infrastructure.
