TEST SEQUENCE FOR DETECTION AND ISOLATION OF INFECTED NODES OF THE INFOCOMMUNICATION NETWORK

A modern infocommunication network (ICN) is a distributed system, the basic elements of which are combined into a single information space. ICNs are often subjected to various attacks by malicious software (MSW), which is why the decisive factor affecting the effectiveness of the functioning of the infocommunication network is the degree of protection of ICN nodes from the influence of MSW. Since existing protection tools do not always cope with the detection of signs of infection of network hardware in a timely manner, the issue of developing and implementing new methods, models, algorithms and systems for protecting information from malicious software that is not based on the detection of MSW signatures is relevant. Of particular importance in this list is the task of timely detection and localization of infected nodes of the infocommunication network. The purpose of the article is to form a test sequence for the detection and localization of infected nodes of the infocommunication network. To establish the fact of “infection” of a specific ICN node, it is necessary to remove information traces from it and conduct their detailed analysis, since in this case the correctness of the
