Introduction: The paper considers the possible threats to information security when using PLC-technologies (power lines). Such technical solutions allow controlling and providing feedback with controllable devices. However, these technologies do not meet the safety requirements. The purpose of this investigation is to explore the problem and suggest solutions.
Materials and Methods: The aims and methods of investigation are presented. The conducted researches and the list of solved problems are indicated. The analysis of information security threats has been carried out.
Results: The study presents a general information system model. The model of threats to the lighting control system was developed using the Dali protocol.
Discussion and Conclusions: The authors have analyzed the factors that determine vulner-abilities of the analyzed examples. The level of safety in the segment of lighting control protocols must be increased. We provide the list of minimum measures to ensure the safe operation of lighting systems. The findings of this study have a number of important implications for future practice.

Keywords: information security, information security threat, information system, lighting control, PLC-technologies
