Substantiation of the indicator for assessing the manageability of information security in automated control systems of critical applications from the effects of malicious software

Abstract

The article substantiates the key role anti-virus protection of automated control systems in ensuring the required protection level of information circulating and processed in these systems. A scientific hypothesis is formulated on ways to solve the problem adaptive control of the process ensure information protection in the automated control system from effects of impact of malware as a problem increasing the efficiency information support for these systems in the process of their functioning. The factors influencing the controllability of information security in the automated control system against threats from malware are formulated. The general form of expressions for characterizing the capabilities of an information protection violator, resident anti-virus protection technology in automated control systems and information processing technology in these systems is substantiated, as well as the general form of expression for the indicator of information protection controllability of in automated control systems from the effects of malware.
