ASSESSMENT SYSTEM FOR ENHANCING CYBERSECURITY POSTURE OF CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE INSPECTION OBJECTS OF THE STATE

Abstract

In the modern digital world, where a significant portion of our daily activities takes place online, cybersecurity becomes an integral component of national security for every state. Particularly crucial is the protection of critical infrastructure, which ensures the functioning of the economy, communications, and society as a whole. Consequently, the development and implementation of a system for assessing the improvement of cybersecurity posture for critical infrastructure inspection objects become an extremely pressing task for governments and organizations. The proposed structural model of the system for assessing the enhancement of cybersecurity posture for critical infrastructure inspection objects of a state, which utilizes a database of cybersecurity measures, rules and standards, as well as modules for generating current values, phase formation, and formation of LV, formation of inspection characteristics, and proximity parameters, will enable the evaluation of the improvement in the level of cybersecurity posture of critical infrastructure objects in a loosely formalized fuzzy environment. In this context, its implementation becomes a critically important step in ensuring the security of the state's critical infrastructure in the face of constantly increasing cyber threats. It contributes to enhancing readiness and resilience to potential cyber-attacks, which is an indispensable component of national security strategy.
