The problem of information confrontation as rivalry in the information sphere with the aim of influencing various aspects of social relations is extremely important in the period of hybrid war. The object of the study was to the models of the dissemination of information and models of information confrontation. The goal of the work is the determine the features of the dissemination of informational threats in the conditions of informational and psychological conflict using a mathematical model based on modern achievements of social psychology, and to find optimal modes of informational dissemination and means of neutralizing informational threats. Mathematical models are proposed that describe the processes of the dissemination of informational threats in the conditions of informational and psychological conflict based on the innovation diffusion model and rivalry models. It is assumed that two flows of information dissemination in society so that each individual can become a supporter of one or the other side. The peculiarities of the methods of choosing behavioral strategies by subjects of influence in the social network during information confrontations are analyzed. The conditions under which one of the parties to the conflict can achieve an advantage by systematically varying the characteristics of the process have been studied. Based on the analysis of mathematical models of the dissemination of information threats, meaningful characteristics are defined, the management of which will reduce or neutralize the impact of the flow of negative information. The presented mathematical models allow to make for both quantitative and qualitative analysis of the main characteristics of the dynamics of information confrontation. The prospects for further research may consist in the generalization of the proposed models for a larger number of information flows and taking into account the dynamics of changes over time in the intensity of information dissemination and other characteristics.
