Development of a method for assessing the society national security level based on the triple helix concept

The object of research is the process of formation of a network structure and a new, non-hierarchical method of coordinating the links of assessing the society national security level, based on the triple helix concept. The triple helix (network interaction of science, business and the state) is presented as a universal institutional matrix for an innovative type of growth and conditions for continuous updates of the relationships of the political, social and economic part of the society national security level. From these positions, the concept of the triple helix allows to form the principles of managing the society national security level under the conditions of interaction of its parts. In this case, the main indicators of national security are taken into account. The economic and social situation at the local level directly affects the stability, manageability, civic cohesion and the country’s ability to resist external and internal threats. The proposed models provide the formation of the national security level integrated indicator model through the main factors of the political, social and economic components. The conducted studies provide a more objective assessment of "preventive" security measures in the context of providing data from state bodies and operational information from law enforcement agencies. At the same time, both quantitative and qualitative assessments of the national security level are taken into account, which provides confidence in ensuring the national security level of the state as a whole. The proposed method for assessing the national security level is based on a model for calculating the integral indicator of the regional society national security level, which ensures timely intervention by authorities and state institutions in stabilizing and/or increasing the national security level. Thus, at the beginning of 2022 in Lviv (Ukraine) it was 65.75 (stable region), in Mariupol (Ukraine) – 32.75 (before occupation, risk to security)
