Abstract

Olena Afanasieva, Oleksii Basmanov, Serhii Novikov FORMATION OF THE CONCEPT OF CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE OBJECTS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE FEATURES OF POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS OBJECTS OF UKRAINE The paper identifies the main provisions of the methodological apparatus of civil protection in relation to the paradigm - the object of critical infrastructure, taking into account the characteristics of potentially dangerous objects and the regulatory framework of Ukraine. The nature of the origin of the paradigm "object of critical infrastructure" is considered. Global trends in the formation of the paradigm of "critical infrastructure object" in the context of solving problems of civil protection are identified. The existing domestic legislative basis for the formation of a modern type of paradigm "critical infrastructure object" in the context of solving problems of civil protection is analyzed. The latter made it possible to determine the following - to date, and in the European Union has formed a definition of critical infrastructure, which includes physical objects, resources, services and information technology, networks and other infrastructure assets, violation or destruction of which leads to serious consequences for the health, safety and economic well-being of citizens and to the disruption of the effective functioning of government. Ukraine has passed and is in force laws that to some extent provide for measures to prevent emergencies caused by accidents and catastrophes at protected potentially dangerous facilities, the consequences of which can lead to infection, disease and death. Therefore, as a definition of critical infrastructure in the work, it is proposed to identify a set of enterprises, networks, systems, failure or disruption of which can cause loss of management and cause serious damage at the national, regional or local level. It includes nuclear and hydroelectric power plants, chemical and petrochemical plants, metallurgical plants and many other state-owned enterprises and private strategic institutions, which are not only protected, but also have special organizational and technical systems of physical protection. At the next stage of the work, the authors plan to join the development of the State system of critical infrastructure protection, which should include: creation of a state system of critical infrastructure protection; to determine the state structure responsible for the coordination of activities for the protection of critical infrastructure; to form the basis of public-private partnership and resource provision in the field of critical infrastructure protection; to promote the development of international cooperation in the field of critical infrastructure protection. Key words: emergency situation, object of critical infrastructure, civil protection, normative-legal basis
