Abstract

The article, using methods of comprehensive analysis, presents a system
of organizational and legal measures to ensure the security of digital services in
terms of combating cybercrime in Ukraine. In particular, this includes
strengthening the trust of the private sector and citizens in digital services
provided by the state, unconditional fulfillment of requirements for ensuring
cybersecurity and cyber protection during their provision, development of
national information infrastructure, development of national standards in the
field of cybersecurity, creation of bodies to assess the compliance of providers of
electronic trust services with the requirements for qualified providers of qualified
electronic trust services and authentication of their users, increasing the
effectiveness of the system for protecting citizens' personal data by harmonizing
the legislation of Ukraine with the relevant legislation of the European Union.
Based on the analysis of the provisions of the current legislative acts
regulating state policy in the field of cybersecurity, as well as the processing of
analytical materials on these issues, the content of measures to ensure digital
services is disclosed, and attention is also focused on the existing problems of
their full implementation. In particular, these are the issues of ensuring the
security of users of the most state electronic applications, preserving the industry
principle of informatization of state bodies, optimizing the architecture of
information security management, which organizations and state authorities can
create and use for their own protection, functional problems of the activities of
bodies assessing the compliance of providers of electronic trust services with the
established requirements, achieving unification of the process of applying
authentication methods for all ministries and departments, the issue of achieving
effective cooperation between European partners in the digital services market.
The position on the need for further work on legal regulation of procedures
for achieving security and transparency in the provision of digital services, timely
identification and neutralization of relevant risks and threats to cybersecurity is
substantiated. Accordingly, the current task of legal science is to form
scientifically based proposals for improving the legal support for the development
of both the digital services market itself and the security of the national digital
environment.
