FORMALIZATION OF SAFETY ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT
The article is the first in a series of articles, united by a single theme of improving the organization of the country's security management system. The article is limited to the general principles of the organization of security management of the country. It is proposed to divide all activities and values of the country into three types of potentials, which are characterized by quantitative or objective formal parameters and provide for different types of management influences; describe with potentials the current, target, forecast state of the country and allowable limitations of potentials. It is proposed to divide the components of complex parameters into three groups: positive potentials, which should be increased, negative potentials, which should be reduced, and passive potentials, which are not formalized or the relation to which is not defined. Of these components, positive and negative components have an impact on decision-making. The passive component can eventually be transformed into a positive or negative component. Examples of application of the offered approach are resulted.
