Expert methods as a tool for determining the importance of software-hardware components of network infrastructure in the provision of information security

The main problem solved in this study was to determine the relevance of the components of network infrastructure to monitor the integrity of the hardware software environment, while ensuring information security. From the entire spectrum of components of software and hardware environment there were singled out those parts, performance of which is most important to prevent the potential for implementation of information security threats. It helped to identify a set of alternatives and the corresponding set of admissible estimates. The relevant phases of the examination were divided into the procedures, it gave the opportunity to get partial phases of the examination. The problem of estimating the alternatives was formulated. The general and additional schemes of the examination have been developed. The special form of the questionnaire has been developed and used.
