In recent years, computer technology has been closely integrated into our lives. The life of modern society is inconceivable without modern information technologies. Computers serve banking systems, control the operation of nuclear reactors, distribute energy, monitor the schedule of trains, control spacecraft, etc. Computer networks and telecommunications predetermine the reliability and strength of the country's defense and security systems. Computers provide storage of information, its processing and provision to consumers, thereby realizing information technology. The availability and wide dissemination of information technologies, computers make them extremely vulnerable to destructive influences. Thus, the threat to information security is one of the most important problems of modern human life and we need to know where it comes from and how we can protect ourselves.
