The authors constructed a fuzzy cognitive model (FCM) assess the information security level (IS), which allows you to link data on the composition of threats, vulnerabilities, means of protection between themselves and consider the impact of potential attacks on basic security services institution’s information assets. FCM not only provides an assessment of the level of information security, but also gives the opportunity to develop recommendations for improved, more targeted search for information security vulnerabilities, as well as accumulate this knowledge. Assesses the adequacy of the developed model was implemented on the example of the Astrakhan State Technical University and showed good correspondence between the theoretical results and data of real test information security University, conducted by a specially selected team.

Key words: information security, fuzzy cognitive model, attack on information resources, information protection, information asse, university security, folding vector criterion, fuzzy classifier
