Модель процесса доставки пакетов по каналу передачи данных в условиях компьютерных атак нарушителя

Abstract

Objective: To analyze the impact of computer attacks on the performance quality of data transmission channels and channeling systems. It is also necessary to take into account the capabilities of an intruder to introduce malware into channeling systems when committing a computer attack. Methods: To determine the required design ratios, several options for setting various distribution functions characterizing the parameters used as input data and types of inbound streams have been considered, taking into account the parameters of the intruder’s computer attack model set by the values of the probability of successful attack. Mathematical modeling is carried out using the method of topological transformation of stochastic networks. The exponential, momentum and gamma distributions are considered as distribution functions of random variables. The solutions are presented for inbound streams corresponding to the Poisson, Weibull, and Pareto models. Results: The proposed approach makes it possible to assess the performance quality of data transmission channels in the context of computer attacks. These assessments make it possible to analyze the state and develop guidelines for improving the performance quality of communication channels against the destructive information impact of the intruder. Various variants of the functions of random variables distribution and various types of the inbound stream were used for modeling, making it possible to compare them, as well as to assess the possibility of using them in channels that provide users with different services. Practical importance: The modeling results can be used to build communication management decision support systems, as well as to detect attempts of unauthorized access to the telecommunications resource of transportation management systems. The proposed approach can be applied in the development of threat models to describe the capabilities of the intruder (the ‘Intruder Model’).
