1.4.2 Examples of Information Technology Impact
Implementation Using Remote Network Attacks
Due to the fact that remote network attacks together with the impact of viruses
constitute the overwhelming majority of ITIs, we shall consider them in more detail.
The following are the main methods and means of ITI, which can be classified as
remote network attacks (Fig. 1.7) [15, 16]:
– Network traffic analysis;
– Substitution of a trusted entity of the information system;
– Introduction of a false object in the information system:
Introduction of a false object by imposing a false network route;
Introduction of a false object using faults of addressing algorithms and remotely
searching for hosts;
By intercepting and forming a false response to the host address request;
By forming a flow of false responses with no requests from hosts;
– Using a false network object to organize a remote attack on the information system:
Selection of information with its subsequent saving on a false network object;
Modification of information passing through a false network object;
Substitution of information passing through a false network object;
