The Selection Algorithm of Mechanisms for Management of Information Risks

This paper is devoted to research of a selection problem of mechanisms for management of information risks. We propose to use a heuristic algorithm of a selection, which relates to the class “greedy algorithms”. This algorithm allows to consider incompatibility of control mechanisms and use of integrated mechanisms. We compared the modified greedy algorithm, the genetic algorithm, and algorithm of full search. Model testing showed the advantage of the modified greedy algorithm. The algorithm can be used for the solution of other tasks, for example, for creation of information systems.
