The Methods of Assessing the Sustainability of Information and Telecommunication Networks in Terms of Informational Influence

The article presents a method of assessing the stability of the information and telecommunication network in terms of informational impact. In modern war, the primary objects of directed counteraction and defeat are presented with control systems rather than troops and weapons. The predicted nature of the enemy’s impact on the military control system and the information and telecommunication network as its technical basis leads to the emergence of new requirements for the quality of the latter. The presented approach allows us to determine the order and type of impact on each element of the TCS, which in turn will allow us to assess the comprehensive indicator of the stability of the network (the coefficient of downtime or serviceable action).
