CHOOSING A STRATEGY FOR PROTECTION OF CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE OBJECTS BASED ON GAME THEORY

Abstract

In the context of the ongoing armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the security of individuals, society and the state significantly depends on the reliable functioning of critical infrastructure facilities (CIF). In addition to physical attacks on such facilities with lethal weapons, the Russian Federation, together with its satellites, continues to try to influence the control systems of critical infrastructure facilities through cyberspace and from cyberspace with non-lethal means - cyber weapons. The
situation is complicated by the fact that critical infrastructure facilities operating in a single information space and supporting a wide range of modern information technologies, despite enormous efforts to counteract outside interference from and through cyberspace, remain vulnerable to new types of threats, and therefore the issue of optimal choice of means of protection for the protected object arises.
