From the sounds of it, it feels something every business, intelligence personnel would have. But what exactly is it that we can define as "Mission Critical".
The Wiki gives the following definition:
Mission Critical refers to any factor of a system whose failure will result in the failure of business operations. That is, it is critical to the organization's 'mission'.
A Mission Critical Machine is one whose performance is vital in performing a particular task. For example, a room full of server needs cooling air to be flowing to prevent overheating that will shut them down. It is very important for all facilities to keep working in a business. Such Components are very important for the business. If one such fails, the entire business fails.

Mission Critical Computing has historically been defined as secure, reliable and scalable computing and process environments that support a company's front office processes and operations. These are the processes and operations that directly support an organization's end users and customers. The operations are mission-critical because they are core to the company's mission and, if they fail, they can cause significant financial or reputational damage to the organization. - Nicholas D.
