Summary/Abstract: The dynamics of the new digital society creates a number of new challenges facing contemporary security. Today they develop into a complex cyber-physical mixed reality, including information space and objective reality. The article presents a methodological approach to model study of these new threats. We use systematic modeling and analysis based on questionnaires, interviews and expert knowledge. The subsequent probabilistic validation is used for simulation evaluation of identified threats in dynamics. The results were further verified with the active participation of the human factor. The proposed approach creates a good basis for analyzing future security challenges in the digital society.
