Analysis of information risks in the system of distributed monitoring based on the fog computing model

The paper considers the aspects of information risk management in the systems of secured collection and distributed processing of huge sensor data. The objects of information threats are components of SCADA-systems of dispatch control and management in the services in energy supply and consumption. Collection and distribution of data processing are carried out spatially with the distributed sensors, devices of automation, accounting and control of energy sources and energy transport processes in the engineering of energy networks. At the wireless sensor network nodes, cellular modems and industrial controllers, metering and control of energy, a model of distributed "fog" calculations, with respect to which the basic components of information risks are considered, is actualized. The classification of information threats and attacks in the wireless transport medium "fog" calculations is presented. The methods and tools of protection of wireless sensor network (WSN), data collection nodes, wireless communications and data transmission are determined. Particular attention is paid to information security aspects of such a component of the "fog" computing as software agents and brokers.
