Gosnet covers Russia

Network RSNet - Safe internet for officials - continued to evolve. After connecting the federal government, the network operator - SSF - intends to bring in her government entities Rossii.Organy power of RF subjects will be able to connect to the selected sound segment of the Internet - a network RSNet (Russian State Network), which is designed for federal government agencies, Given the increasing security measures. This is stated in the annex to the order of the director of the Federal Security Service Yevgeny Murov, registered in the Ministry of Justice on September 4, 2009 (the text is available CNews). Connect to a protected network can be any body of local government until the city administration, but on condition that he able to pay the connection to one of the 60 nodes, explained CNews representative FSO Andrei Kozyrev. In addition, he said, the order more clearly defines the terms and conditions of connection of new subscribers to RSNet.Set RSNet began to develop in 1998 under the direction of the Federal Agency for Government Communications and Information (FAPSI). In 2003, after the abolition of FAPSI and the creation of the Federal Protective Service (FSO), the operator RSNet passed to the service of special communication and information in the SSF. The project RSNet were registered domains gov.ru, kremlin.ru and government.ru. For users of the network was allocated a range of local IP-addresses. Subdomains gov.ru be managed by the apparatus of government, the State Duma and Federation Council, the Security Council, the FSB, FSO, MES and drugim.Tsel project RSNet, in addition to placing information on the activities of power structures is to provide Internet access to officials. FSO, as stated in the annex to the order Murov, provides information interaction with providers of Internet access services, financial and technical support, as well as security. In addition, the FSO to attach the new users to seti.Eksperty point to the likelihood that today in the state structures are not connected to RSNet, data is transferred without encryption. "In this case, there is a risk of information leakage in the exchange of information between departments through the open channels of the Internet, - said Alexander Kazakov, a consultant in the field of law. - In addition, the possible theft of information and personnel departments, as evidenced by the presence of freely available from different databases. "The problem with leakage through the fault of the rank and file employees can be addressed through system administration - eg through blocking the connection of portable devices and instant messengers ban, said Kozak. But at the level of heads of departments (their units), similar methods, in his opinion, did not seem reliable because the system administrators, at least, are subordinate to the head of an agency. "For this reason, there are at least two ways to prevent leaks. The first - the introduction of legal liability for violation of the non-proliferation of information, the second - the reduction of the human factor to a minimum. Regulation (Annex to the Order of the SSF - approx. CNews) and prior to him the documents quite fit in the second scenario, "- sure ekspert.V future SSF plans to deal with the development of networks for public services, which told CNews Andrei Kozyrev: build new sites RSNet, develop projects and provide users access to audio-visual files, as well as to operate mail servers. As part of the network FSO has already launched the state distribution system of legal acts to provide support to state institutions (http://pravo.fso.gov.ru). Use of this system can also be ordinary citizens. This library contains all documents, legal acts and decrees from the time of Peter, spoken in the SSF. In addition, as part of the network is planned to create English versions of sites of public institutions for English-speaking audience, as well as mobile versions of portals for the owners of phones and PDA.
