Current Problems of Information Law: Analysis of Current Trends in Cybersecurity

Abstract

Purpose of the article. To determine the peculiarities of the formation of information law as the basis of trends in modern cybersecurity, which is important in modern society. Informatization and post-industrialization is one of the factors in the development of modern cybersecurity. Methodology. Methods of systematic analysis of scientific works on this problem, as well as the use of methods of analysis and synthesis and method of generalization to determine the results. Philosophical (dialectical), general theoretical, (gnoseological, structural, and functional), special (comparative and legal, inductive), and interdisciplinary methods of scientific knowledge (historical, analytical), which application is predetermined by a systematic approach, were used as a methodological basis of research. Scientific novelty. The author proposed a study consisting in clarification of the concept of information law in the context of the development of modern cybersecurity. The article reflects the peculiarities of cybersecurity as an aspect of information law. Based onthe theoretical and methodological analysis, the essential features of information law were analyzed, the characteristic features of cybersecurity as a manifestation of information law in the context of globalization processes were analyzed. The features of informatization as one of the elements of technology were considered, and the tasks and issues of cybersecurity were defined. The features of information law as an aspect of global cybersecurity are summarized. The article reflects the main components of cybersecurity. The appropriateness of analyzing current trends in information law as a goal achievement is substantiated. The relevance of the study is due to the definition of intensive development of information and communication technologies in the modern period of formation of the post-industrial information society. Conclusions. The research has become the basis for the concretization of the concept of the information society. The presented research does not exhaust the whole essence and requires further study of individual aspects.
