THE INTERNATIONAL LEGAL FRAMEWORK FOR ENSURING THE INFORMATION SECURITY OF THE STATE

Abstract

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of international legal regulation of information security and international cooperation in the field of protection of critically important objects of national information systems. The article analyzes the key provisions of universal and special international acts regulating the issue of information security, including resolutions of the UN General Assembly and treaties and agreements of regional organizations. Based on the analysis of the fundamental international documents in the field of information security, it has been established that in the context of the active formation of cyberspace, the problem of using information technologies for illegal purposes is increasing. In this context, it is noted that it is extremely important to harmonize national legislation with generally recognized international norms in combating transnational crimes in the information environment. International acts create a solid legal basis for the development of a unified policy of responsible state behavior in the information environment and contribute to strengthening the global information infrastructure.
