Abstract

The fundamental consequence of the global informatization of state structures was the emergence of a fundamentally new environment of confrontation between competing states - cyberspace. The use of the Internet and information technology opens up endless opportunities for humanity, but also poses new serious threats. Increasing the number of cyber threats to the economic component of our country makes the issue of optimization of legal regulation of this sphere more relevant.

 According to ISO / IEC 27032: 2012, cybersecurity is the preservation of the integrity, confidentiality and accessibility of information circulating in the cybersystem (that is, information fed into the cybersystem, accumulated and stored in it for further processing) ensuring the stability and continuity of the system's implementation of management functions by cybersystem with respect to the respective objects.

The purpose of the research is to comprehensively assess the state and trends of the development of the European Union’s cybersecurity system in the context of globalization, to justify the ways and mechanisms of using the European experience in national security.

 The most promising directions of development of the national cyber defense system, today, are as follows: improvement of the legal basis of cyber defense of critical infrastructure; implementation of the system of independent information security audit on critical infrastructure facilities; establishment of sectoral cyber incident response centers; development of international cooperation in the field of cybersecurity; development of cyber security training system; increasing digital literacy of citizens.
