Introduction. The innovative activity of business entities is a catalyst for the growth, development and security of the national economy. Innovation activity is associated with continuous processes of generation, commercialization, practical application, promotion, maintenance, control; tools and mechanisms of management and regulation; areas and directions of application; organizational, economic, organizational, legal, technical and economic characteristics; the procedure for legal registration and the subject of legal relations. The work is aimed at studying the innovative activity of an enterprise, systematizing the structure of intellectual property objects and forms of legal support for the protection of industrial property in the interests of the development of innovative activities.Purpose. Development of tools that allow for risk assessment in the field of innovation, as well as assessment of the possibility of reducing transaction costs for the protection of intellectual industrial property, achieving the goal of sustainable development of the enterprise.Materials and methods. The assessment of risks and threats in the field of intellectual industrial property of Russian enterprises was carried out on the basis of generalized materials of judicial practice of dispute resolution. The detailing of the economic and legal space of industrial property allowed us to determine the significant influence of factors on the innovative activity of the enterprise. The author's method of assessing risks and threats in the field of industrial property is based on the analysis of indicators reflecting the security of the property interests of Russian enterprises. A conceptual scheme for obtaining and analyzing mathematical models used to assess risks and threats in the field of intellectual industrial property of an enterprise has been developed. The proposed algorithm makes it possible to systematically assess risks in the field of intellectual industrial property and formulate directions for optimizing the innovative activity of the enterprise.Results and Conclusions. The results of the study showed that there are two risk-forming factors in the field of intellectual industrial property. Firstly, the protection of industrial designs belonging to the company. The relative values of the indicator fluctuate in the range of 0.464–0.562, which indicates a steady, and by the end of the period, a growing level of risk in this area. The natural values are in the range of ~608-737 thousand cases, which confirms the high conflict and importance of protecting industrial samples. Secondly, the protection of intellectual property rights belonging to the enterprise. The relative values of the indicator are higher (0.509–0.550), which indicates an increased overall vulnerability of the intellectual industrial property system. The natural values will rise sharply to 41-44 thousand cases, which may be due to increased law enforcement practice. The conclusions formulated based on the results of the study are significant for strengthening the organizational and legal mechanism of the company's functioning and can be used in the development of measures and measures for managing the company's innovation activities.
