Management of a Dynamic Infrastructure of Complex Systems Under Conditions of Directed Cyber Attacks

Abstract The problem of managing the dynamic infrastructure of complex systems in the context of targeted cyber attacks is considered. An approach to management is proposed, consisting of finding a self-regulation scenario in the minimum time that eliminates the destructive impact by finding an alternative route for implementing the objective function. It is proposed to characterize the process of self-regulation evaluating the system’s resistance to cyber attacks. Approaches to assessing the stability for systems with centralized and decentralized control are proposed.
