The analysis of social engineering systems allowed to build fuzzy cognitive model of assessment
of its man-made elements to arrive at an informed judgment about the need for control actions to
bring the State of the social subsystem to the specified level. The set of control actions is implemented
through the use of institutional mechanisms, motivation and information management. You must
ensure that the level of motivation is not greater than the optimum value, and the intensity of institutional
measures was below critical. To calculate the value of concepts at the lower levels of the hierarchy
model can be used as an additive vector measure up, because in this case, the values of some
concepts can be offset by other values. For the top level of appropriate application of convolution,
because the multiplicative if at least one of the concepts of {«level of motivation “; «Psychophysical
capabilities; «Competence»} «variable linguistic factor» is set to «Low», then the integral evaluation
of the level of effectiveness of the man-made element should be taken as equal to «Low». Evaluation
of the concept of “ Level motivation» may correspond to the values of the negative term-many
of the linguistic variable. Assessment of the status of the subject in this case will also take «negative
» values. Content that can be interpreted as the potential destructive impact of man-made element
on the system-«insider threat».
