The information structure of threats to national security

The paper discusses the creation of the information model of the system of monitoring and neutralizing threats to national security. The author justifies the choice of dynamic semantic networks for representing data. The author discusses the composition of such network and the basic operations on it — identification, merge, and inclusion. The meaningful part of the main objects of the threats information model and the connections between them are specified. The author describes an example of a fragment of the dynamic semantic network used to represent the data of monitoring of scientific-technical and technological factors, potentially suitable for creation of new means and methods of threats realization. The author justifies the composition of analytical methods used to identify and assess threats based on methods of discrete mathematics and statistical analysis. The obtained results can be used to form the requirements for the systems of monitoring and assessment of threats that are being developed by the authors.
