Intellectual method of programs interactions visualization for information security audit of the operating system

Abstract

One of the tasks of information security audit is to monitor the processes of data exchange between operating system programs. A huge number of such files as well as the heterogeneity of exchange between them do not allow an expert to perform the task manually. Full automation of the process is difficult to implement due to the weak formalization of information about exchange processes and criteria for their insecurity. This paper proposes a partial solution to the problem by visualizing the interaction of programs for an expert — in the form of an appropriate method. The expediency of using artificial intelligence as one of the stages of the method is substantiated. The developed prototype of the tool is described and its basic testing is carried out.
