Analysis of «incident» definitions and its interpretation in cyberspace. (English)

Determining of the most concepts is focused on specific sectors or industries as a result of the international legal base modernization. Analysis of scientific sources showed the lack of the works devoted to the base terminology research. This makes not clear the concepts of information security incident and cyber incident. As a result, methods and systems for responding to information security incidents (cyber incidents) are complicated and low efficient. In view of this, multicriteria analysis of concept definitions «incident» in international and industry standards, scientific publications, dictionaries, reference books and online resources were carried out. After the analysis a common set of basic features of the incident concept was identified and the generalized definitions of information security incident & cyber incident were proposed.
