Information security threats. Threats to the national security of the Russian Federation

The international situation, the state of the domestic economy, the social polarization of Russian society and the aggravation of interethnic relations create a wide range of internal and external threats to the country's security.

Internal threats are caused, first of all, by a significant reduction in the gross domestic product, a decrease in investment, innovation activity and scientific and technical potential, the stagnation of the agricultural sector, an imbalance in the banking system, an increase in external and internal debt, a trend in the predominance of fuel and raw materials and energy components in export deliveries, and also imports of equipment, food and consumer goods, including basic necessities.

The weakening of the scientific, technical and technological potential of the country, the reduction of research in strategically important areas of scientific and technological development, the outflow of specialists and intellectual property abroad threaten Russia with the loss of its leading positions in the world, the degradation of high-tech industries, increased external technological dependence and undermining the defense power of the state.

a threat to Russia's securitysocial sphere is the stratification of society into a narrow circle of the rich and the predominant mass of low-income citizens, an increase in the proportion of the population living below the poverty line, an increase in unemployment, and an increase in social tension. The growth of negative manifestations in the social sphere leads to a decrease in the intellectual and productive potential of Russia, a reduction in the population, the depletion of the main sources of spiritual and economic development, and may lead to the loss of democratic gains.

The threat to the physical health of the nation is manifested in the crisis state of health systems and social protection of the population, the rapid increase in the consumption of alcohol and drugs, and the deterioration of people's health.

The consequences of a deep social crisis are a sharp reduction in the birth rate and average life expectancy, the deformation of the demographic and social composition of society, the undermining of labor resources as the basis for the development of production, the weakening of the fundamental unit of society - the family, and the decrease in the spiritual, moral and creative potential of society.

A threatdepletion of natural resources and deteriorationenvironmental situation in the country is directly dependent on the level of economic development and the readiness of society to realize the global nature and importance of these problems. This threat to Russia is especially great due to the predominant development of the fuel and energy industries, the underdevelopment of the legislative framework for environmental protection, the absence or limited use of environmentally friendly technologies, and low environmental culture. There is a tendency to use the territory of Russia as a burial place for environmentally hazardous materials and substances.

The weakening of state supervision and the lack of effective legal and economic mechanisms for the prevention and elimination of emergency situations increase the risks of man-made disasters in all areas of economic activity.

Negative processesin economics lie at the heart of the centrifugal aspirations of a number of constituent entities of the Russian Federation. This leads to increased political instability, weakening of the single economic space of Russia and its most important components - production, technological and transport links, financial, banking, credit and tax systems, contributes to the growing threat of violating the unity of the country's legal space and even its territorial integrity.

Ethnoegoism, ethnocentrism And chauvinism, manifested in the activities of a number of public formations, as well as uncontrolled migration, contribute to the strengthening of nationalism and regional separatism, religious extremism and create favorable conditions for the emergence of conflicts.

Economic disintegration, social differentiation of society, devaluation of spiritual values ​​provoke an increase in tension in relations between regions and the center, representing threatfederal structure And socio-economic structure Russian Federation.

The unified legal space of the country is being eroded as a result of the deviation from the principle of the priority of the norms of the Constitution of the Russian Federation over other legal acts and norms of the constituent entities of Russia, the lack of well-functioning state administration at various levels, which is a factor that negatively affects the state of national security of the country.

Strengthening negative trendsin the defense sector contributes to the delay in the process of reforming the military organization and the military-industrial complex of the Russian Federation, insufficient funding for national defense and the imperfection of the regulatory framework. At the present stage, this is manifested in the extreme severity of social problems in the Russian Armed Forces, the critically low level of their operational and combat training, the unacceptable reduction in the staffing of troops (forces) with modern weapons, military and special equipment and leads, in general, to a weakening of the defense security of the Russian Federation. .

A threatcriminalization public relations, emerging in the process of reforming the socio-political structure and economic activity, acquires particular urgency. The mistakes made at the initial stage of reforms in the economic, military, law enforcement and other spheres of state activity, the weakening of the system of state regulation and control, the imperfection of the legal framework and the lack of a strong social state policy, the decline in the spiritual and moral potential of society are the main factors contributing to the persistence of crime and corruption, the spread of political extremism.

The consequences of these miscalculations are manifested in the weakening of legal control over the situation in the country, the merging of individual elements of the executive and legislative authorities with criminal structures, their penetration into the management of the banking business, large industries, trade organizations and commodity distribution networks. In this regard, the fight against crime and corruption has not only a legal, but also a political character.

Terrorism in Russia acquires a multifaceted character and poses a serious threat to the security of the state. International terrorists have unleashed an open campaign against Russia to destabilize the situation in the North Caucasus and seize this region from Russia, which poses a direct threat to the territorial integrity of the state.

The threat of terrorism and organized crime is growing as a result of a large-scale, often conflicting change in the forms of ownership, an intensification of the struggle for power based on group and ethno-nationalist interests. The low effectiveness of preventive measures to prevent criminal manifestations, legal nihilism, the outflow of qualified personnel from law enforcement agencies increase the degree of impact of this threat on the individual, society and the state.

Main EXTERNAL Threats to Russia's national security are caused by the following factors:

    the desire to belittle the role of existing mechanisms for ensuring international security, primarily the UN and the OSCE;

    the danger of weakening the political, economic and military influence of Russia in the world;

    the strengthening of military-political blocs and alliances, above all, the expansion of NATO to the east;

    the possibility of foreign military bases appearing in the immediate vicinity of the Russian borders;

    the continued proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and their means of delivery;

    strengthening of centrifugal processes in the CIS;

    the emergence and escalation of conflicts near the state border of Russia and the external borders of the CIS;

    territorial claims to Russia.

The combination of these factors may pose a threat to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Russia, including the possibility of direct military aggression against her.

Threats to the national security of the Russian Federation in the international sphere are manifested through the attempts of other states to counteract the strengthening of Russia as one of the influential centers of the multipolar world.

Elevated to the rank of strategic doctrine, NATO's transition to the practice of forceful military operations without the sanction of the UN Security Council is fraught with the threat of destabilizing the strategic situation in the world.

The growing technological gap between a number of leading powers and the build-up of their capabilities to create weapons and military equipment of new generations can lead to a qualitatively new stage in the arms race and significantly affect the forms and methods of military operations.

INborder sphere Threats to the security and interests of Russia are caused by:

    the incompleteness of the international legal registration of the state border of the Russian Federation and the delimitation of the national territory with a number of neighboring states;

    the expansion of the economic, demographic, cultural and religious expansion of neighboring states into Russian territory;

    the intensification of the activities of cross-border organized crime in the smuggling of material assets, drugs, weapons, theft of natural resources, as well as foreign terrorist organizations;

    the instability of the situation in the border regions of Russia due to a decrease in the living standards of the population, ethnic, inter-confessional and other conflicts.

Activity is activated on the territory of Russia foreign special services and the organizations they use. There are also deliberate attempts by foreign states to interfere in Russia's internal affairs.

Separatism and local armed conflicts are also among the direct threats to national security.

Serious dangers are: pursuit a number of countries to dominance in global information space, ousting Russia from the external and internal information market; development a number of states concepts "information wars" providing for the creation of means of dangerous influence on the information spheres of other countries of the world, disruption of the normal functioning of information and telecommunication systems, the safety of information resources or obtaining unauthorized access to them.

National, including basic, interests may be affected by various threats.

In today's international environment, there is three types of threats to Russia: 1) external, 2) internal and 3) cross-border, the neutralization of which is, to one degree or another, a function of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

Main external threats:

1. the build-up of force groupings near the borders of the Russian Federation or the borders of its allies, leading to a violation of the existing balance of forces;

2. interference in the internal affairs of the Russian Federation by foreign states or organizations supported by foreign states;

3. the presence near the borders of the Russian Federation or the borders of its allies of centers of armed conflicts that threaten their security;

4. territorial claims against the Russian Federation, the threat of political or forceful rejection of certain territories from the Russian Federation;

5. implementation by states or socio-political structures of programs for the creation of WMD;

6. demonstration of military force near the borders of the Russian Federation, conducting exercises with provocative goals;

7. instability, weakness of state institutions in border countries;

8. expansion of military blocs and alliances to the detriment of the military security of the Russian Federation and its allies;

9. activities of international Islamic radical groups, strengthening the positions of Islamic extremism near Russian borders;

10. the introduction of foreign troops (without the consent of the Russian Federation and the UN Security Council) on the territory of neighboring and friendly states of the Russian Federation;

11. armed provocations, attacks on military installations of the Russian Federation located on the territory of foreign states;

12. actions hindering Russia's access to strategically important transport communications;

13. discrimination, suppression of the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens of the Russian Federation in foreign countries;

14. distribution of dual-use technologies and components for the manufacture of nuclear and other types of weapons of mass destruction.

Main internal threats:

1. attempts to forcefully change the constitutional order;

2. planning, preparation and implementation of actions to disrupt and disorganize the functioning of bodies state power and control, attacks on state, national economic, military facilities, life support facilities and information infrastructure;

3. activities of illegal armed groups;

4. illegal distribution (trafficking) on ​​the territory of the Russian Federation of weapons, ammunition, explosives, etc.;

5. large-scale activities of organized crime, threatening political stability on the scale of the subject of the Russian Federation;

6. activities of separatist and radical religious-nationalist movements in the Russian Federation.

Cross-border threats combine the features of internal and external threats. Being in the form of manifestation internal, in essence(by sources of stimulation, possible participants, possible participants) are external. There is a trend towards an increase in the importance of cross-border threats to the security of the Russian Federation. Main cross-border threats:

1. creating, training and equipping armed formations on the territory of other states for the purpose of their deployment for operations on the territory of the Russian Federation and the territory of its allies;

2. support from abroad for subversive separatist, national and religious extremist groups intended to undermine the constitutional order, creating a threat to the territorial integrity of the Russian Federation and the security of its citizens;

3. international terrorism, if its activities affect the security of the Russian Federation;

4. conducting information actions hostile to the Russian Federation;

5. cross-border crime, including smuggling and other illegal activities on a scale that threatens the military-political security of the Russian Federation or the stability of the territory of the allies of the Russian Federation;

6. drug trafficking activities, transportation of drugs to the territory or use of the territory of the Russian Federation as a transit territory for the transportation of drugs to other countries.

Threats to the national security of the Russian Federation include:

1. Terrorist threat. Local conflicts, often on ethnic grounds, inter-confessional confrontation, which are artificially pumped up and imposed on the world by extremists of various stripes, remain a significant fuel for terrorists, a source of their weapons and a field of activity.

2. Threat of proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD). If such weapons fall into the hands of terrorists, the consequences can be simply catastrophic. Nuclear weapons are now possessed by 9 states of the world (Russia, USA, England, France, China, India, Pakistan, Israel, North Korea). 8 more states are close to its creation.

3 . The threat is arms race, reaching a new technological level, threatening the emergence of a whole arsenal of new destabilizing weapons. US military spending in 2006 exceeded Russia's military spending by 23 times.

4. The absence of a guarantee not to withdraw weapons, including nuclear ones, into space. The launch of intercontinental ballistic missiles with non-nuclear warheads may provoke an inadequate response from the nuclear powers, including a retaliatory strike using strategic nuclear forces. The situation with the development of ballistic missiles in North Korea, Iran.

5 . Threat of bloc thinking stereotype. For example, in order to protect themselves allegedly from Russia, the Baltic countries, Georgia and a number of other countries of the former Warsaw Pact have entered or have a desire to enter the NATO bloc. The composition of the NATO bloc: 1949 - 12 states; 1982 - 16 states; 1999 - 19 states; 2004 - 26 states.

6. Threats in the economic sphere:

− reduction of knowledge-intensive industries;

− decrease in investment and innovation activity;

− destruction of the scientific and technical potential of the country;

− increase in the export of foreign exchange reserves, strategically important types of raw materials outside Russia, the outflow of qualified personnel and intellectual property;%

− increase in the share of the fuel and raw materials sector in industry;

− formation of an economic model based on the export of fuel and raw materials and the import of equipment, food and consumer goods, i.e., there is an increase in the country's dependence on foreign manufacturers of high-tech equipment, there is a technological dependence of the Russian Federation on Western countries and undermining the defense potential of the state.

7. Threats in the social sphere:

− increase in the proportion of the population living below the poverty line;

- the stratification of society into a narrow circle of the rich and the predominant mass of low-income citizens.

8. Threat to the physical health of the nation manifests itself in the crisis state of health care systems and social protection of the population, in the growth of alcohol and drug consumption. A serious problem is the demographic situation in the country: in a number of regions of the Russian Federation, mortality exceeds the birth rate, and people's health is deteriorating.

9. Threat of depletion of natural resources and deterioration of the ecological situation. This threat is especially great due to the predominant development of the fuel and energy industries, the underdevelopment of the legislative framework for environmental protection measures, and the lack of use of environmentally friendly technologies. There is a growing tendency to use the territory of Russia as a place for the disposal of hazardous materials and substances, and to place hazardous industries on Russian territory.

10. Increasing the likelihood of man-made disasters. The share of man-made emergencies in the total amount in our country is 91.8%.

11. Threats in the international sphere manifest themselves through the attempts of some states to counteract the strengthening of Russia as one of the centers of the emerging multipolar world. This is manifested in actions aimed at violating the territorial integrity of the Russian Federation, as well as in territorial claims.

12. Threats in the military sphere. The importance of military force in the system of international relations has not diminished in recent times. The military-political situation does not rule out the possibility of major armed conflicts arising near Russia's borders, affecting the security interests of the Russian Federation.

13. A new threat has emerged maritime piracy.

Drug trafficking activities that pose a threat to the transportation of drugs to the territory of the Russian Federation, or the use of the territory of Russia for the transportation of drugs to other countries.

    Factors of uncertainty in the field of construction and use of the RF Armed Forces.

Under uncertainty factor refers to a situation, conflict or process of a political or military-political nature, the development of which can significantly change the geopolitical situation in a region that is a priority for Russia's interests or create a direct threat to the security of the Russian Federation. The factors of uncertainty are:

Reducing the role of the UN Security Council formal and actual deprivation of its prerogatives to authorize the use of military force in the world. The expansion of the practice of using military force for political or economic purposes on the basis of a national decision will significantly reduce the significance and effectiveness of political instruments for resolving crisis situations and significantly lower the threshold for the use of the Armed Forces. This may require Russia to seriously adjust its plans for military development and deployment of troops. Thus, the retention by the UN Security Council of the authority to authorize the use of military force in the world is seen as the most important instrument for maintaining international stability.

The possibility of returning to nuclear weapons the properties of a real military instrument. Attempts were noted to return nuclear weapons to the range of acceptable military instruments through the implementation of "breakthrough" scientific and technical developments in new types of nuclear weapons that turn nuclear weapons into relatively "clean" ones, the use of which does not have such significant negative consequences as the use of earlier types of nuclear weapons. weapons. The conduct of similar R&D in a number of countries and the adoption of political decisions on the possibility of their expanded financing are considered by the RF Ministry of Defense as a factor capable of seriously changing world and regional stability. In fact, the question is raised about the possibility of targeted use of nuclear weapons in regional conflicts against military and civilian targets in order to destroy large groups of armed forces and civilian infrastructure. The lowering of the threshold for the use of nuclear weapons at the operational-tactical and tactical levels, which devalues ​​the importance of conventional armed forces and weapons, transforms the threat of the use of nuclear weapons from a political one into a military-political one. This will require Russia to overhaul its command and control system and build a deterrence capability, perhaps not only through a change in nuclear policy, but also through a willingness to implement asymmetric measures.

Possibility of strengthening WMD proliferation processes, including nuclear technology, and delivery vehicles. The expansion of the practice of using armed forces without the sanction of the UN Security Council may provoke a greater demand for weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear weapons, among regional centers of power seeking to create an instrument of deterrence. In addition to the general destabilization of the international situation, this will also have a number of military-applied consequences. The appearance in the regional balances of forces of the nuclear factor on both sides will significantly change the nature of the armed struggle. For Russia, this process, if implemented on a full scale, will create the problem of expanding measures to counter the threat of the development and use of weapons of mass destruction in regional conflicts, both at the political and military-technical levels.

Prospects and direction of development of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. At present, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) plays a crucial role in ensuring regional stability in Central Asia and the western part of the Far East region. In the event of further strengthening of the political and military-political potential of this structure, Russia will have a zone of peace and stability in the Southeast and Far East directions, excluding the emergence of a large-scale military threat, which Russia will have to confront alone. In the event that there is a complete or partial renationalization of the security policy of the states of the region, Russia will be forced to consider the region as a potential source of ethnic conflicts, border disputes and general military-political instability. This can naturally make adjustments to Russian military planning, as well as to the principles for deploying groupings of forces and means of permanent readiness units.

Possible directions for the development of the NATO enlargement process. In the event that NATO transforms into a political organization with a historically formed military potential, the process of expanding the Alliance to the East will remain within the framework of a political dialogue with Russia regarding the conditions for further interaction. In this dialogue, difficulties will inevitably arise related to the conditions for the integration of new member countries into the Alliance and their role in it, since Russia firmly advocates the absence of anti-Russian components not only in military planning, but also in the political declarations of the member countries of the Alliance. Otherwise, the partnership between Russia and NATO is devoid of functional meaning. However, if NATO continues as a military alliance with a predominantly offensive military doctrine, especially against the backdrop of a weakening role of the UN Security Council in deciding on the use of force, this will require a radical restructuring of Russian military planning and the principles of building the Russian Armed Forces, including in the range of possible actions elements of a preventive strategy in the event of a threat to the Russian Federation. Moreover, such a restructuring will require the deployment of groups of foreign troops on the territory of states bordering on Russia. A change in Russian nuclear strategy and an increase in the importance of tactical nuclear weapons for ensuring stability in the Western strategic direction are not ruled out.

    Priorities of foreign policy of the Russian Federation.

The Foreign Policy Concept of the Russian Federation defines the main priorities of the foreign policy of our state in solving global problems:

Formation of a new world order;

Strengthening international security;

Ensuring favorable foreign policy conditions for Russia in the field of international economic relations;

Respect and protection of human rights at the international level;

Information support of foreign policy activities.

    The main objectives of the military policy of the Russian Federation at the present stage.

Based on the current situation and the fact that the highest priority of Russia's state policy is to protect the interests of the individual, society and the state, it is necessary to identify the main goals of Russia's military policy at the present stage.

1) Ensuring the reliable security of the country, maintaining and strengthening its sovereignty and territorial integrity, strong and authoritative positions in the world community, which to the greatest extent meet the interests of the Russian Federation as a great power, as one of the influential centers of the modern world and which are necessary for the growth of its political, economic , intellectual and spiritual potential.

2) Impact on global processes in order to form a stable, fair and democratic world order based on universally recognized norms of international law, including, above all, the goals and principles of the UN Charter, on equal and partnership relations between states.

3) Creation of favorable external conditions for the progressive development of Russia, the rise of its economy, the improvement of the living standards of the population, the successful implementation of democratic reforms, the strengthening of the foundations of the constitutional system, and the observance of human rights and freedoms.

4) Formation of a belt of stability along the perimeter of the Russian borders, assistance in eliminating existing and preventing the emergence of potential hotbeds of tension and conflicts in the regions adjacent to the Russian Federation.

5) Search for agreement and concurring interests with foreign countries and interstate associations in the process of solving the problems of world security, determined by Russia's national priorities, building on this basis a system of partnership and allied relations that improve the conditions and parameters of international cooperation.

    Types of military conflicts and their brief description.

Armed conflict. One of the forms of resolving political, national-ethnic, religious, territorial and other contradictions with the use of means of armed struggle, in which the state (states) participating in hostilities do not go into a special state called war. In an armed conflict, the parties, as a rule, pursue private military-political goals.

An armed conflict may result from the escalation of an armed incident, a border conflict, an armed action and other limited-scale armed clashes, during which the means of armed struggle are used to resolve contradictions.

An armed conflict may be of an international character (with the participation of two or more states) or an internal character (with the conduct of armed confrontation within the territory of one state).

Local war. A war between two or more states, limited by political goals, in which military operations will be conducted, as a rule, within the borders of opposing states and mainly the interests of only these states (territorial, economic, political, and others) are affected.

A local war can be waged by groupings of troops (forces) deployed in the conflict area, with their possible strengthening due to the transfer of additional forces and means from other directions and the partial strategic deployment of the armed forces.

Under certain conditions local wars may escalate into a regional or large-scale war.

regional war. A war involving two or more states (groups of states) of a region by national or coalition armed forces using both conventional and nuclear weapons on a territory bounded by one region with adjacent oceans, seas, air and outer space, in the course of which the parties will pursue important military-political goals. The conduct of a regional war will require the full deployment of the armed forces and the economy, the high tension of all the forces of the participating states. If nuclear-weapon states or their allies participate in it, a regional war will be characterized by the threat of transition to the use of nuclear weapons.

Large scale war. War between coalitions of states or the largest states of the world community. It can be the result of an escalation of an armed conflict, a local or regional war by involving in them a significant number of states from different regions of the world. In a large-scale war, the parties will pursue radical military-political goals. It will require the mobilization of all available material resources and spiritual forces of the participating states.

    To reveal the concept of "Military organization of the Russian Federation" and its main tasks.

The defense of Russia's national interests in the military sphere is decided first of all, military organization of the state, which represents a set of state and military administration bodies, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, other troops, military formations and bodies, as well as allocated parts of the scientific and industrial complexes, the joint activity of which is aimed at ensuring defense and military security, protecting the vital interests of the state.

The main task of the military organization of the Russian Federation is the exercise of deterrence in the interests of preventing aggression of any scale, including the use of nuclear weapons against Russia and its allies.

    The composition of the military organization of the Russian Federation.

Organizationally, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation consist of centralized military command and control bodies, associations, formations, military units, institutions and organizations, as well as military educational institutions that are included in the branches and branches of the armed forces, Logistics of the Armed Forces and troops that are not included in the branches and branches of the troops Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

Military authorities designed to lead troops (forces) in various units in both peacetime and wartime. These include commands, headquarters, departments, departments and other permanently and temporarily created structures. For placement and operation of command and control agencies in combat conditions, command posts are deployed.

Associations- these are military formations, including several smaller formations or associations, as well as units and institutions. The formations include an army, a flotilla, a military district - an operational-strategic territorial combined arms association, and a fleet - a naval association.

Military district- this is an operational-strategic territorial combined-arms association of military units, formations, educational institutions, military institutions of various types and branches of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. A military district, as a rule, covers the territory of several subjects of the Russian Federation.

Fleet is the highest operational-strategic association of the Navy. Commanders of districts and fleets direct their troops (forces) through headquarters subordinate to them.

connections are military formations consisting of several units or formations of a smaller composition, usually various types of troops (forces), special troops (services), as well as units (subdivisions) of support and maintenance. Formations include corps, divisions, brigades and other equivalent military formations.

Military Unit- organizationally independent combat and administrative-economic unit in all types of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Military units include all regiments, ships of 1st, 2nd and 3rd ranks, separate battalions (divisions, squadrons) and separate companies that are not part of battalions and regiments.

TOinstitutions of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation include such structures for ensuring the life of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, such as military medical institutions, officers' houses, military museums, editorial offices of military publications, sanatoriums, rest houses, camp sites, etc.

to military schools include: military academies, military universities and institutes, higher and secondary military schools, military faculties at civilian universities, the Suvorov and Nakhimov schools, training and retraining courses for officers.

    Types and branches of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation include the branches of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation:

The type of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is like an integral part, distinguished by special weapons and designed to perform the tasks assigned to them. The types of the Armed Forces include: Ground Forces, Air Force (Air Force), Navy (Navy).

Ground Forces, Air Force and Navy. Each branch of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation consists of branches of service (forces), for the comprehensive support of the combat activities of the branches of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, they include special troops and rear services.

To the branches of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation include: Space Forces. Strategic Rocket Forces, Airborne Troops. A branch of service is understood as a part of the branch of the Armed Forces. distinguished by the main armament, technical equipment, organizational structure, the nature of training and the ability to perform specific combat missions for interaction with other branches of the armed forces.

Special troops serve to provide for the types and types of troops and assist them in the performance of combat missions. These include: engineering troops, chemical troops, radio engineering troops, signal troops, automobile troops, road troops and a number of others.

    What applies to conventional weapons.

conventional weapons constitute all fire and strike weapons using artillery, aviation, small arms and engineering ammunition, conventional missiles, high-precision weapons, volumetric explosion (thermobaric) ammunition, incendiary ammunition and mixtures.

The relativity of the term "conventional weapons" should be emphasized, since the use of this type of weapon can lead to mass casualties among the population. This is evidenced by the experience of wars and armed conflicts of the 20th century.

In recent years, there has been a sharp increase in the combat potential of developed countries due to the quantitative and qualitative buildup of conventional weapons. Thus, having accumulated significant stocks of weapons of mass destruction, the United States and its allies increased the production of weapons of conventional systems. Their damaging properties and combat effectiveness have sharply increased.

Fire and strike weapons include firearms (small arms, artillery, bombs, mines, grenades), jet and rocket weapons.

Firearms - a weapon in which the energy of an explosive is used to eject a projectile (mines, bullets, other fillers). Firearms include artillery weapons (howitzers, cannons, mortars) and small arms (machine guns, machine guns, rifles and pistols).

Relatively new models of firearms, widely used in military conflicts of the 20th century are ammunition with ready-made submunitions. In particular, we are talking about ball bombs, needle-filled ammunition and a more modern, fragmentation-beam projectile.

ball bombs contain up to 300 and. more than metal or plastic balls with a diameter of 5-6 mm. During the explosion, the balls scatter at high speed in all directions and cause multiple injuries to soft tissues and internal organs, as well as fragmentary bone fractures. During the aggression in Vietnam, the US military used ball bombs in cluster form (about 600 bombs per cluster).

Needle-filled ammunition contain from 5 to 12 thousand thin steel needles or arrows, which, when exploded and scattered, are bent in the shape of a hook and inflict multiple severe injuries, most often leading to death. These munitions can conditionally be classified as means of mass destruction, since when they explode, the range of projectiles reaches 500 m with an area of ​​damage up to 70-80 hectares.

Fragmentation-beam projectile with ready-made striking elements simultaneously throws out 1500 2-gram bullets, destroying all life on an area of ​​​​3000-5000 m²

Rocket weapon - ground, aviation and marine installations (10-45 barrels) for volley fire with unguided rockets delivered to the target due to the thrust of a jet engine (Grad, Pinocchio systems).

Missile weapons (in conventional equipment) - a system in which means of destruction are delivered to the target by missiles: a complex that includes a missile with a conventional launcher, a launcher, means of targeting, test and launch equipment, means that control the flight of the missile, vehicles, etc. devices.

The most effective type of conventional weapons is precision-guided weapons (PW).

Accepted for high-precision weapons include various kinds of devices and means intended for delivering "point" remote strikes in automatic mode. The concept of WTO includes a set of weapons (missiles, aerial bombs, land mines), their means of delivery (launchers, aviation), guidance and navigation. High accuracy (up to 10 m) and high charge power allow you to strike at well-protected targets and shelters. Precision weapons are often referred to as reconnaissance-strike systems (RUS) or reconnaissance-strike systems (RUK).

Volumetric explosion ammunition (thermobaric ammunition)

Thermobaric ammunition devices capable of producing detonating gas-air or air-fuel mixtures. As a result of the detonation of a gas-air or air-fuel mixture flowing into cracks, trenches, dugouts, military equipment, ventilation hatches and communication cables of leaking engineering structures, buildings, protective structures and buried objects can be completely destroyed. Moreover, explosions in a confined space are highly effective not only for causing damage (destruction) to fortifications (protective) structures, but also for destroying enemy manpower and the population.

Named ammunition has the following damaging factors: shock wave, thermal and toxic effects.

Incendiaries (mixtures)

incendiary mixtures are pyrotechnics containing napalm (incendiary mixtures based on petroleum products with a combustion temperature of up to 1200 ° C), phosphorus (metallized incendiary mixtures - pyrogels, with a combustion temperature of up to 1600 ° C) or thermite (thermite mixtures with a combustion temperature of up to 2000 ° C ). They can be equipped with air bombs, mines, land mines, flamethrowers. Incendiary mixtures were widely used during the Korean War (1950-1953) and the American aggression in Vietnam (1964-1974). The damaging effect of incendiary mixtures is due to thermal burns of the skin and mucous membranes, infrared radiation and poisoning by combustion products. The burning fiery mixture can affect not only the skin, but also the subcutaneous tissue, muscles and even bones: deep burns of III and IV degrees occur in 70-75% of cases. Phosphorus burns can be complicated by poisoning of the body when phosphorus is absorbed through the burn surface. The impact of incendiary mixtures on the human body often causes combined lesions, leading to the development of shock, the appearance of which is possible in more than 30% of those affected.

The unifying link for the considered damaging agents is the presence of a single leading damaging factor - the ability to cause mechanical (wounds) and traumatic injuries to people.

    Nuclear weapons: - types of ammunition;

- damaging factors of nuclear weapons;

- distribution of nuclear weapons according to the nature of the application.

Nuclear weapon ammunition, the damaging effect of which is based on the use of intranuclear energy released during explosive nuclear reactions (fission, fusion, fission and fusion at the same time).

Distinguish atomic, thermonuclear and neutron munitions. Depending on the power of the ammunition(energy nuclear explosion in TNT equivalent (kilotons, megatons)), there are: ultra-small (up to 1 kt), small (1-10 kt), medium (10-100 kt), large (100 kt-1 mt) and extra-large (over 1 mt) nuclear ammunition.

By the nature of the use of nuclear weapons allocate : ground, underground, underwater, surface, air and high-altitude explosions.

The damaging factors of the reference ground explosion include (Film No. 2/2 ORP): light emission(30-35% of the energy of a nuclear explosion goes to the formation), shock wave (50%), penetrating radiation (5%:), radioactive contamination of the area and air,electromagnetic pulse, as well as the psychological factor, i.e. the moral impact of a nuclear explosion on personnel.

Introduction


The security of the Russian Federation is the state of protection of the vital interests of its citizens, society and the state from internal and external threats.

By security threats we mean potential threats to political, social, economic, military, environmental and other, including spiritual and intellectual values ​​of the nation and the State. Security threats are closely linked to the national interests of the country, including outside its territory. In each case, their elimination requires special forms and methods of activity of the State: the use of appropriate special bodies, forces and means of the state.

The main security objects are:

personality - its rights and freedoms; society - its material and spiritual values;

state - its constitutional system, sovereignty and territorial integrity

The threat to the security of the Russian Federation is a combination of conditions and factors that endanger the vital interests of the individual, society and the state.

The real and potential threat to security objects, emanating from internal and external sources, determines the content of activities to ensure internal and external security, depending on the spheres of life of society and the state, which are targeted by security threats. they can be conditionally divided into political (threats to the existing constitutional order), economic, military, informational, man-made, environmental and others.

1. Threats to security: external, internal, cross-border


Today, there are several types of threats to the national security of the Russian Federation: external, internal and cross-border. External threats include the deployment of groupings of armed forces and assets near the borders of the Russian Federation and its allies, territorial claims against the Russian Federation, threats of secession of certain territories from the Russian Federation; interference in the internal affairs of R.F. from foreign countries; buildup of troop groupings leading to disruption of the existing balance of forces near the borders of the Russian Federation; armed provocations, including attacks on Russian military installations located on the territory of foreign states, as well as on objects and structures on the State Border of the Russian Federation and the borders of its allies; actions that impede Russia's access to strategically important transport communications; discrimination, non-observance of the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens of the Russian Federation in some foreign states

The main external threats to national security are:

.a decrease in the role of Russia in the world economy due to the targeted actions of individual states and interstate associations, such as the UN, the OSCE;

2.reduction of economic and political influence on the processes taking place in the world economy;

.strengthening the scope and influence of international military and political associations, including NATO;

.emerging trends towards the deployment of military forces of foreign states near the borders of Russia;

.the worldwide proliferation of weapons of mass destruction;

.the weakening of the processes of integration and the establishment of economic ties between Russia and the CIS countries;

.creation of conditions for the formation and emergence of military armed conflicts near the state borders of Russia and the CIS countries;

.territorial expansion in relation to Russia, for example, from Japan and China;

.international terrorism;

.weakening of Russia's position in the field of information and telecommunications. This is manifested in the reduction of Russia's influence on international information flows and the development by a number of states of information expansion technologies that can be applied to Russia;

.a sharp decrease in the military and defense potential of the country, which does not allow it, if necessary, to repel a military attack, which is associated with a systemic crisis in the country's defense complex.

.the activation of the activities of foreign organizations engaged in intelligence and the collection of strategic information on the territory of Russia;

Experts refer to internal threats as follows: attempts to forcibly change the constitutional order and violate the territorial integrity of Russia; planning, preparation and implementation of actions to disrupt and disrupt the functioning of public authorities and administration, attacks on state, economic and military facilities, life support facilities and information infrastructure; creation, equipping, training and activities of illegal armed formations; illegal distribution of weapons, ammunition and explosives on the territory of the Russian Federation; large-scale organized crime activities that threaten political stability in some regions of the Russian Federation. Activities of separatist and radical religious national movements.

The main internal threats to national economic security are:

1.strengthening the degree of differentiation of living standards and incomes of the population. The formation of a small group of the wealthy population (oligarchs) and a large part of the poor population creates a situation of social tension in society, which can ultimately lead to serious socio-economic shocks;

2.deformation of the sectoral structure of the national economy. The orientation of the economy towards the extraction of minerals creates serious structural shifts;

.strengthening the uneven economic development of the regions. A sharp difference in the level of socio-economic development of the regions destroys the existing ties between them and hinders inter-regional integration;

.criminalization of Russian society. In society, the tendencies to receive unearned income through direct robbery and seizure of property have sharply increased, which negatively affects the overall stability and stability of the national economy. Great importance has a total penetration of criminal structures into the state apparatus and industry and the emerging trend of merging between them;

.a sharp decline in the scientific and technical potential of Russia. The basis of economic growth - the scientific and technological potential - has been practically lost over the past decade, due to a reduction in investment in priority scientific and technical research and development, the mass exodus of leading scientists from the country, the destruction of science-intensive industries, and the strengthening of scientific and technical dependence;

.strengthening isolation and striving for independence of the subjects of the Federation. Russia has significant territories that function within the framework of a federal structure;

.increased interethnic and interethnic tension, which creates real conditions for the emergence of internal conflicts on ethnic grounds;

.widespread violation of the single legal space, leading to legal nihilism and non-compliance with the law;

.decline in the physical health of the population, leading to degradation due to the crisis of the health care system;

.demographic crisis associated with a steady trend of prevalence of general mortality of the population over the birth rate.

Taken together, internal threats to national security are closely intertwined and interrelated.

The negative trends are ecological situation in the world. Her characteristic features are the depletion of natural resources, the periodic occurrence of extensive zones of environmental disasters and catastrophes, and the degradation of renewable natural resources. Most countries are characterized by the use of environmentally imperfect technologies in industry, agriculture, energy, and transport. A real threat to Russia's interests is the tendency to use its territory for the disposal of hazardous waste from the chemical and nuclear industries of the developed countries of Europe.

There are growing negative trends in the global social sphere. There is an increase in the proportion of patients, the disabled, people suffering from hunger and malnutrition, the use of poor-quality water. The proportion of illiterate and unemployed remains high (according to the official unemployment rate, Russia is still among the most prosperous countries, ranking approximately 7th in the world). However, according to the classification of the International Labor Organization in Russia, there are more than 5 million unemployed. Approximately the same number work part-time or are on forced leave, the level of material support population. Migration processes are expanding to alarming proportions. deterioration in physical and mental development of people.

The threat to the physical health of the nation is manifested in the crisis state of health care systems and social protection of the population. There is widespread alcoholization of the population. The consumption of recorded and unrecorded alcohol per capita in terms of pure alcohol is from 11 to 14 liters, while the situation is assessed as dangerous at an indicator of 8 liters

Cross-border threats are manifested in the following:

Creation, equipment and training on the territory of other states of armed formations and groups for the purpose of their transfer for operations on the territory of Russia;

The activities of subversive separatist, national or religious extremist groups supported from abroad, aimed at undermining the constitutional order of Russia, creating a threat to its territorial integrity and the security of its citizens. Cross-border crime, including smuggling and other illegal activities on an alarming scale;

Drug trafficking activities that create a threat of drug penetration into the territory of Russia or the use of its territory for the transit of drugs to other countries;

Activities of international terrorist organizations.

Terrorism, having a very complex content, affects the national security of the country at all its levels - interstate, state, international, national, class and group. In addition, domestic and international terrorism violates the nation's ability to self-preservation, self-reproduction and self-development.

Domestic and international terrorism carry a similar threat. In general, the boundary between these types of terrorism is so shaky (according to most scientists, terrorist acts committed in Russia are manifestations of precisely international terrorism) that, as the author sees it, it is very difficult to clearly separate the threats from them.

Terrorism poses a threat to the country's interests in the social sphere, which are to ensure a high standard of living for the people. destroying the economic and political system life of society, terrorism hinders the attainment of society's highest value, which is its own well-being.

Terrorism violates the main inalienable right of every person - the right to life. The result of the two Chechen wars and the activities of all the pro- and anti-Russian administrations is a full-scale humanitarian catastrophe. Over the 12 years of the anti-terrorist war in the Chechen Republic, the total losses amounted to about 45 thousand people. Over half a million residents of Chechnya and adjacent territories were forced to leave their homes

The process of identifying sources of hazards and threats requires a clear understanding of their general and specific signs. Sources of danger to the security of the state are in various spheres of society. It seems that the most significant of them are hidden in the spheres of political relations of the state, classes, social groups of society; economic relations; spiritual and ideological, ethno-national and religious, as well as in the environmental and information security spheres, etc.

2. Threats to national economic security


Economic threats are concluded in economic relations, in economic categories - changes in exchange rates, interest rates, prices, violations of obligations under contracts, etc. The objects of economic threats are the economies of entire countries, regions, industries, individual economic systems, enterprises, population groups, families, more precisely, family budgets (households - in Western terminology) as economic systems of the lower hierarchical level. Thus, economic threats are threats to economic systems generated by economic relations and phenomena. However, the root causes of economic threats usually lie not in the economy itself, but in other areas.

In the economic sphere, the threats are complex and are primarily due to a significant reduction in the gross domestic product, a decrease in investment, innovation activity and scientific and technical potential, the stagnation of the agricultural sector, an imbalance in the banking system, an increase in public debt, a tendency to predominate in export deliveries of fuel, raw materials and energy components, and in imports - food and consumer goods, including basic necessities. The weakening of the scientific, technical and technological potential of the country, the reduction of research in strategically important areas of scientific and technological development, the outflow of specialists and intellectual property abroad threaten Russia with the loss of leading positions in the world, the degradation of high-tech industries, increased external technological dependence and undermining the defense capability of Russia

Disorganization of the national economy - up to its bankruptcy (as a result of targeted and large-scale speculation in the securities market or a massive presentation of payment requirements that the Russian Federation, as a debtor country, will not be able to fulfill, followed by the seizure of foreign property and the freezing of bank accounts and other negative consequences).

Economic blockade, or "soft embargo" (in the form of intense, targeted competition).

food vulnerability. Russia runs the risk of crossing the "red" line in food imports: the critical level for the country's food independence is about 30%, while in a number of industrial areas the share of foreign food is up to 60%. Adjacent to this scenario is the problem of biological degradation of the population due to the consistent deterioration in the structure of nutrition and the quality of consumer products.

There is not only a possibility of the Russian economy degrading to the level of a natural resource enclave of the world economy, but also a possible prospect of a gradual withdrawal of the country from the world resource trade.

The threat of criminalization of society is the loss by the state of control over economic and financial activities.

According to some estimates, criminal groups in one form or another control 20-30% of commercial and banking structures. A manifestation of this threat is large-scale corruption in all echelons of power.


3. Principles for ensuring the security of the Russian Federation


The main principles of security are:

legality;

maintaining a balance of vital interests of the individual, society and the state;

mutual responsibility of the individual, society and the state to ensure security;

integration with international security systems.

Observance of the rights and freedoms of citizens while ensuring the security of the Russian Federation

When ensuring the security of the Russian Federation, restrictions on the rights and freedoms of citizens are not allowed, except in cases expressly provided for by law.

Citizens, public and other organizations and associations have the right to receive clarifications regarding the restriction of their rights and freedoms from security agencies. At their request, such explanations are given in writing within the time limits established by law.

Officials who have exceeded their powers in the process of ensuring security are liable in accordance with the law


4. Basic functions of the security system


The security system is formed by legislative, executive and judicial authorities, state, public and other organizations and associations, citizens participating in ensuring security in accordance with the law, as well as legislation regulating relations in the field of security.

The main functions of the security system are:

identification and forecasting of internal and external threats to the vital interests of security facilities, implementation of a set of operational and long-term measures to prevent and neutralize them;

creation and maintenance in readiness of forces and means of ensuring security;

management of forces and means of ensuring security in everyday conditions and in emergency situations;

implementation of a system of measures to restore the normal functioning of facilities without

dangers in the regions affected by the emergency;

participation in security measures outside the Russian Federation in accordance with international treaties and agreements concluded or recognized by the Russian Federation

Forces and means of ensuring the security of the Russian Federation

Forces and means of ensuring the security of the Russian Federation are created and developed in accordance with the decisions of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, decrees of the President of Russia, short-term and long-term federal programs security.

The security forces include:

Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, federal security agencies, internal affairs agencies, foreign intelligence, security of legislative, executive, judicial authorities and their highest officials, tax service;

services for liquidation of consequences of emergencies, the formation of civil defense of the Ministry of Emergency Situations;

border troops of the FPS, internal troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs;

bodies ensuring the safe conduct of work in industry, energy, transport and agriculture;

communications and information security services, customs, environmental authorities, public health authorities and other government security authorities

Conclusion


Ensuring national security at a sufficient level makes it necessary to constantly monitor external and internal threats, and therefore their list is constantly changing depending on specific political, social, legal and economic conditions.

IN modern conditions both domestic and foreign policy successes of countries are determined not only by their military and economic power, but also by successes in establishing actual control over the main information and cultural processes. The information technology gap is turning into a serious global security threat. since it creates real opportunities to exploit the intellectual potential of other countries for their own purposes, to spread and implement their ideological values, their culture and language, to hinder the spiritual and cultural development of the rest of the world, to transform and even undermine its spiritual and moral foundations. Instead of "hot" wars, methods of information war.

The system of international security created after the end of World War II did not initially provide for measures to counter such threats, therefore one of the main tasks facing humanity is to erect a strong barrier to such dangerous phenomena.

Information security is the protection of information from accidental or intentional effects of a natural or artificial nature that can harm its owner or user.

Basic principles of information security

1. Data integrity- such a property, according to which information retains its content and structure in the process of its transmission and storage. Only a user with access rights can create, destroy or modify data.

2. Confidentiality- a property that indicates the need to restrict access to specific information for a designated circle of people. Thus, confidentiality ensures that during the transmission of data, they can be known only to authorized users.

3. Availability of information- this property characterizes the ability to provide timely and unimpeded access of full users to the required information.

4. Reliability- this principle is expressed in the strict belonging of information to the subject, which is its source or from which it is received.

The task of ensuring information security implies the implementation of multifaceted and comprehensive measures to prevent and track unauthorized access by unauthorized persons, as well as actions that prevent misuse, damage, distortion, copying, blocking of information.

Information security issues become a priority in cases where a failure or an error in a particular computer system can lead to serious consequences.

Types of information security threats

Under the threat of information security, it is customary to understand the potential actions, phenomena or processes that can have an undesirable impact on the system or on the information stored in it.

Such threats, affecting resources, can lead to data corruption, copying, unauthorized distribution, restriction or blocking of access to them. Currently, a fairly large number of threats are known, which are classified according to various criteria.

According to the nature of occurrence, they distinguish natural And artificial threats. The first group includes those caused by the impact on the computer system of objective physical processes or natural disasters. The second group is those threats that are caused by human activity.

According to the degree of intentionality of manifestation , threats are divided into random And deliberate.

There is also a division in depending on their immediate source, which can be the natural environment (for example, natural disasters), a person (disclosure of confidential data), software and hardware: authorized (an error in the operation of the operating system) and unauthorized (infection of the system with viruses).

The source of threats can have a different position. Depending on this factor, there are also three groups:

— Threats, the source of which is outside the controlled group of the computer system (for example, the interception of data transmitted over communication channels)

— Threats, the source of which is within the controlled zone of the system (this may be the theft of information media)

- Threats that are directly in the system itself (for example, incorrect use of resources).

Threats can affect a computer system in different ways. It can be passive influences, the implementation of which does not entail a change in the data structure (for example, copying). Active Threats- these are those that, on the contrary, change the structure and content of a computer system (the introduction of special programs).

According to the division of threats by stages of user or program access to system resources there are such dangers that appear at the stage of access to the computer and are detectable after access is allowed (unauthorized use of resources).

Classification by location in the system implies a division into three groups: threats of access to information located on external storage devices, in RAM and to the one that circulates in communication lines.

Threats can use a direct, standard path to resources through illegally obtained passwords or through the misuse of legitimate users' terminals, or they can "bypass" existing protections in another way.

Actions such as information theft are classified as threats that manifest themselves regardless of system activity. And, for example, the spread of viruses can only be detected during data processing.

random, or unintentional threats that are not related to the actions of intruders are called. The mechanism of their implementation has been studied quite well, so there are developed methods of counteraction.

Accidents and natural disasters are especially dangerous for computer systems, as they entail the most negative consequences. Due to the physical destruction of systems, information becomes inaccessible or is lost. In addition, it is impossible to completely avoid or prevent failures and failures in complex systems, as a result of which, as a rule, the information stored on them is distorted or destroyed, the algorithm of the operation of technical devices is violated.

Mistakes that may be made during the development of a computer system, including incorrect operation algorithms and incorrect software, can lead to consequences that are similar to those that occur when hardware fails and fails. Moreover, such errors can be used by attackers to influence system resources.

User errors lead to a weakening of information security in 65% of cases. Incompetent, negligent or inattentive performance of functional duties by employees at enterprises leads to the destruction, violation of the integrity and confidentiality of information.

Allocate also deliberate threats, which are associated with the purposeful actions of the offender. The study of this class is difficult, since it is very dynamic and constantly updated with new types of threats.

To penetrate a computer system for the purpose of further theft or destruction of information, such methods and means of espionage are used as eavesdropping, theft of programs, protection attributes, documents and information carriers, visual surveillance, and others.

In case of unauthorized access to data, standard hardware and software of computer systems are usually used, as a result of which the established rules for restricting user or process access to information resources are violated. The most common violations are the interception of passwords (performed using specially designed programs), the performance of any actions under the name of another person, and the use by an attacker of the privileges of legitimate users.

Specific malware

"computer viruses"- These are small programs that can independently spread after being introduced into a computer by creating copies of themselves. Under certain conditions, viruses have a negative impact on the system;

"worms"- Utilities that are activated every time you boot your computer. They have the ability to move within a system or network and replicate in a manner similar to viruses. Avalanche-like reproduction of programs leads to overload of communication channels, memory, and then to blocking of work;

"Trojan horses"- such programs “hide” under the guise of a useful application, but, in fact, harm the computer: they destroy software, copy and send files with confidential information to an attacker, etc.
