The graph demonstrating the topology of a power consumption system of a computer network for controlling a power supply distance is proposed. On the basis of Pukhov differential transformations the mathematical models of cybersecurity of computer networks of electric power supply control are offered. The criterion of cybersecurity is formalized and the minimax principle is given for the case of the worst combination of intensity of cyberattacks and defensive actions. The intelligent method of searching for an optimal cybersecurity strategy by examining the extremum of the proposed functional is considered. %8 2017-10-09
