PECULIARITIES OF ENSURING CYBER SECURITY AS A LEADING COMPONENT OF UKRAINE'S NATIONAL SECURITY

Abstract

The article emphasizes that the modern understanding of the phenomenon
of national security appears in the unity of several components, which include
military security, public security, economic security, energy security, environmental security, information security, state security and cyber security.
The latter acts as an integrating component in relation to all others, because in
modern conditions, the use of appropriate programs is the basis of operations in
any sphere of social life.
It was emphasized that it is necessary to be aware of the fact that in recent
decades the problem of cyber security has significantly transformed from the
level of a single computer to the level of the state, individual organizations,
spheres of the economy and objects of critical infrastructure. In view of this, this
problem is now not purely technical, but should be considered precisely from the
point of view of administrative and legal support for the functioning of an
integrated mechanism for ensuring state cyber security, the creation of relevant
institutions, central bodies of executive power responsible for this area, as well as
structural subdivisions (official persons) at the level of individual enterprises,
institutions, organizations.
It is noted that the formation of the regulatory and legal basis of cyber
security, the definition of its conceptual vision and development strategy at the
state level should be included among the peculiarities of ensuring cyber security
as a leading component of Ukraine's national security; the close connection
between cyber security and the development of domestic education; formation of
the so-called cyber culture as a system of values, stable ideas about the essence
and significance of cyber security in the everyday life of people, their associations
and society as a whole.
