The relevance of the study is due to the growing dependence of critical infrastructure facilities on information technologies and the intensification of cyber threats, which pose significant risks to the continuity of business processes. Organizations of the banking sector are particularly vulnerable, for which even a short-term suspension of work can lead to significant financial and reputational losses. The subject of the study is approaches, strategies and indicators for assessing the level of ensuring the continuity of business processes in the conditions of cyber threats, as well as the impact of security factors on the effectiveness of the functioning of critical infrastructure facilities. The purpose of the article is to study approaches to ensuring the sustainable operation of business processes of banking sector organizations in the conditions of growing cyber threats by analyzing mechanisms for improving systems for preventing terrorist acts directed at critical infrastructure facilities. As a result of the study: the nature and means of implementing terrorist cyber threats to critical infrastructure facilities were analyzed; key strategies for ensuring business continuity are identified and relevant indicators for their assessment are determined; an approach to assessing the impact of strategic decisions on the level of continuity of business processes is proposed; a general structure of the method is developed that allows modeling and assessing the stability of the functioning of banking sector organizations in conditions of destabilizing factors. Conclusion. The study allows to increase the validity of management decisions regarding the choice of continuity strategies. The proposed approach can be used as a basis for creating methodological recommendations for managing cyber risks in critical sectors of the economy.
