Abstract: Abstract A problem of investigation and assessment of stability, vulnerability and survivability of large-scale systems has been formulated. Approaches to solution of a problem of assessing occurrence of an abnormal (pre-crisis, crisis) situation in similar systems and construction of the system of its state indicators have been considered, relationships for assessment of threat to the critical system facilities, as well as the concept of rational distribution resources for ensuring their safety has been formulated. The priority ranking that relates to critical infrastructure facilities protection against acts of terrorism (as exemplified by the fuel and energy complex facilities) has been discussed. The ranking algorithm as applied to similar facilities, which is based on their systemic significance for the fuel and energy complex, has been suggested. Besides, the algorithm for forming the ranked list of different-type facilities of the fuel and energy complex has been suggested, too.
