Mathematical models of characteristics of timely response to penetration into a protected area by blocking information in physical protection complexes

This article is the first in a series of articles devoted to the issues of physical protection of ships and other watercraft with nuclear power plants and radiation sources during their stay in ports. The principles of construction and functioning of mobile complexes of physical protection of seaports as a new class of integrated automated security systems are considered. The blocking of information in the complex is determined as the most serious vulnerability of such systems. A small amount of data on information protection from blocking in complex and integrated security systems and their absence in systems of the class under consideration is stated. The main reason for the current state of the theory and practice of information protection against blocking in the complexes of physical protection of seaports is determined, which is the lack of a methodological apparatus for mathematical modeling that adequately evaluates the effectiveness of countering penetration into protected areas by blocking information in such security systems. A formal interpretation of the processes under study is given. A conceptual model of violation of the protection regime of the port territory and water area is considered. Mathematical models of particular indicators of the timeliness of response to the actions of violators at individual stages of the penetration into the protected area threat are presented. An integral indicator of timeliness of response to penetration into a protected area by blocking information in the complexes of physical protection of seaports is substantiated
