Abstract:
The world we live in is becoming more and more dependent on information, information technology and communications. All governments should take actions to be prepared to face the new challenges that the cyberspace can bring. The main characteristics of cyberspace are no borders, dynamism and anonymity, creating both opportunities to develop knowledge-based information society, but also risks to its functionality.
Cybersecurity represents the state of normality resulting from the application of a set of proactive and reactive measures that ensure the confidentiality, integrity, availability, authenticity and non-repudiation of information in electronic format, the public and private resources and services in cyberspace. Proactive and reactive measures may include policies, concepts, standards and guidelines for security, risk management, training and awareness activities, implementation of technical solutions to protect cyber infrastructure, identity management, consequence management.
