Conceptual Approaches to the Assessment of the Effectiveness of Cyber Warfare in Military Information and Communication Systems
Abstract
Purpose. To analyze, generalize, systematize, and compare conceptual approaches to assessing the effectiveness of conducting cyber warfare in military information and communication systems, including relevant information technologies and mathematical models.
Method. General scientific theoretical research methods were employed, including analysis, generalization, systematization, and comparison, which enable a comprehensive examination of the key features and differences among conceptual approaches to assessing the effectiveness of conducting cyber warfare in military information and communication systems.
Practical implications: It is determined by the possibility of applying the research results in the development and improvement of decision support systems, mathematical models of specific cyber warfare processes, the planning of cyber defense measures, and the assessment of the effectiveness of actions within the framework of contemporary hybrid military conflicts.
Future research. Consist in the implementation of the obtained results into the practice of modeling and assessing the effectiveness of the course and outcomes of conducting cyber warfare by military command authorities at all levels of command.
Paper type. Theoretical.
