The area of research includes: control theory, dynamic systems, parameters of the external environment, mode, integral indicators, strategy. The general problem of assessing the state of large economic objects (enterprises) is revealed.…
The difficulty of assessing the state lies in a little predictable change in the dimension of a dynamic system under the influence of internal changes and environmental parameters. In the work, the state of such a system is estimated by the…
The beauty of Information Technology (IT) is with its multifunction nature; it is a support system, a networking system, a storage system, as well as an information facilitator. Aided with their broad line of services, an IT system aims to…
Dependence on information, including for some of the world's largest organisations such as governments and multi-national corporations, has grown rapidly in recent years. However, reports of information security breaches and their…
Along with the development of intelligent manufacturing, especially with the high connectivity of the industrial control system (ICS), the network security of ICS becomes more important. And in recent years, there has been much research on…
An analytical approach for a dynamic cyber-security problem that captures progressive attacks to a computer network is presented. We formulate the dynamic security problem from the defender's point of view as a supervisory control problem…
System security assurance provides the confidence that security features, practices, procedures, and architecture of software systems mediate and enforce the security policy and are resilient against security failure and attacks. Alongside…
Owing to recorded incidents of Information technology inclined organisations failing to respond effectively to threat incidents, this project outlines the benefits of conducting a comprehensive risk assessment which would aid proficiency in…
As more business activities are being automated and an increasing number of computers are being used to store vital and sensitive information the need for secure computer systems becomes more apparent. These systems can be achieved only…
Information theory and the framework of information dynamics have been used to provide tools to characterise complex systems. In particular, we are interested in quantifying information storage, information modification and information…
Information systems and data are necessary resources for several companies and individuals; but they likewise encounter numerous risks and dangers that can threaten their protection and value. Information security and information assurance…
Industrial Control System (ICS) is a general term that includes supervisory control & data acquisition (SCADA) systems, distributed control systems (DCS), and other control system configurations such as programmable logic controllers (PLC).…
Modeling processes are the activities of capturing and representing processes and control of their dynamic behavior. Desired features of the model include capture of relevant aspects of a real phenomenon, understandability, and completeness…
With our growing reliability on distributed networks, the security aspect of such networks becomes of prime importance. In large scale distributed networks it becomes cardinal to have an efficient and effective monitoring scheme. The…
The convergence of information and communication technologies has introduced new and advanced capabilities to Industrial Control Systems. However, concurrently, it has heightened their vulnerability to cyber attacks. Consequently, the…
The increasing frequency, impact, consequence and sophistication of cybersecurity attacks is becoming a strategic concern for boards and executive management of organisations. Consequently, in addition to focusing on productivity and…
Cyber risk assessment is a fundamental activity for enhancing the protection of an organization, identifying and evaluating the exposure to cyber threats. Currently, this activity is carried out mainly manually and the identification and…
Risk is the best known and perhaps the best studied example within a much broader class of cyber security metrics. However, risk is not the only possible cyber security metric. Other metrics such as resilience can exist and could be…
Considerable research effort has been devoted to the study of Policy in the domain of Information Security Management (ISM). However, our review of ISM literature identified four key deficiencies that reduce the utility of the guidance to…
A review of economic approaches showed the lack of a universal method for assessing management decisions in the face of an increasing volume of analyzed data and changing parameters of the external environment. The method of integral…
