Abstract: The features of forming and characteristics of patent databases are considered. The classification of patent information is given. The threats to information security of patent information and the ways of its leakage in the patent office are revealed. The formalized definition is introduced of the mechanism of patent database protection, and models and methods are proposed of constructing the optimal mechanisms of patent information fund database structures protection at different levels of their representation – conceptual, logical and physical. The results obtained were used at the construction of the Eurasian Patent Office information security management system.

Keywords: patent information, classes of patent information, patent database, patent information fund, information security, protection methods, protection mechanisms.
