Features of the information security audit model of SCADA systems

Abstract

The problems arising during the audit of automated control systems for technological processes and the corporate network of an enterprise are conside­red. The features of the formation of the audit model of automated control sys­tems in the presence of built-in SCADA-systems are considered. The possibili­ties of using the audit model in the operation of control systems in real and protected time modes are considered.

On the history of graph theory. Origin

Abstract



The family tree as an ancient unscientific use of graphs is not always a tree in the mathematical sense and may include cycles. Another ancient un­scientific use of graphs is the image of the starry sky:

— just a drawing of stars — a graph without edges;

— asterisms and arrangements of stars of constellations can be both “minimal“ trees and graphs with cycles;

— figures and regions of constellations in the starry sky are hypergraphs.

The authors proposed the year 1542 as the year of the probable appearan­ce of the Konigsberg bridges problem. The authors believe that the first report on graph theory was made by Leonhard Euler in 1735 at a Conference of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences and is devoted to the Konigsberg bridges problem. The authors believe that the first letter on graph theory by Karl Leonhard Gottlieb Ehler was sent to Leonhard Euler on March 9 (20), 1736 with the question of “the construction of the seven Konigsberg bridges“.

Composition and functions of the software of the geographical information system (on the example of Maptitude)

Abstract

In the modern world, the process of developing and implementing inno­vative information updating systems is rapidly developing, and geographic in­formation systems are no exception, which, having a complex structure, re­quire regular updating of information in various formats. The purpose of the article is to analyze the systems used in the creation of GIS mapping software. Geographic Information System (GIS software) is designed to store, retrieve, manage, display and analyze all types of geographic and spatial data. GIS software allows you to create maps and other graphical representations of geo­graphic information for analysis and presentation. An assessment was made of the effectiveness of using software when creating a GIS, visualization pa­rameters, and identifying a more efficient method of updating information.

The significance of blockchain technology in banking

Abstract

The article provides an analysis of the importance of information techno­logy in the banking sector and is a study of the theoretical aspects of block­chain technology. The authors of the work define the main stages of develop­ment and reveal the potential for implementation. A wide range of applica­tions of this technology is known, but how far it will go for the banking sector is another big question, since uncertainty and obstacles contrast with at­tempts to use it, so the main purpose of the article was to reveal the role and main prerequisites for the introduction of blockchain technologies.
