Calculation of the security level coefficient of the automated system of the internal affairs bodies based on the information security of the information security system with updates of virus and threat signatures

Abstract

Objective. This paper considers protection against threats that occur more often in the period from the start of the operating system boot. Consideration of various configurations will allow an overview of a fairly wide range of situations that arise. To solve the problem, it is necessary to determine the vulnerabilities, as well as to designate the coefficients that determine the state of the automated system.Method. Computer facilities are a set of software and hardware components (including information security tools) of data processing systems that can function independently or as part of other systems. Methods for analyzing the process of the impact of computer threats at the stage of loading the operating system are applied.Result. A technique is proposed for calculating the security factor of automated systems in a secure design, depending on the availability of the necessary security policies and the timely updating of virus and threat signature databases. The vulnerabilities in the process of starting the operating system are summarized, conclusions are drawn on the calculation of the security level coefficient of the automated ATS system based on the information security of the information security system with updates of virus and threat signatures.Conclusion. The developed methodology makes it possible to assess the security of automated systems, taking into account the situation of information security in the field.
