Abstract

With the beginning of full-scale and open aggression on the part of the Russian Federation, improving the system of ensuring Ukraine's national security became an urgent issue. At the same time, ensuring cyber security is one of the priorities in the national security system. The implementation of the specified priority should be carried out by strengthening the capabilities of the national cyber security system to counter cyber threats in the modern security environment. Since now almost every inhabitant of the planet has access to the Internet, there are many more opportunities to influence our thoughts and actions. Information aggressors now do not just tell tales about the enemy, they form a different vision of the world, replace reality with such a well-thought-out hoax that it is almost impossible to distinguish it from the truth. At the end of the 20th beginning of the 21st century. the world received a new form of confrontation  a hybrid war. One of the leading countries that actively uses the tools of hybrid warfare today is Russia. The basic components of the Russian strategy and tactics of modern hybrid warfare were formulated in 2013. In the context of the functioning of the online network space, as a means of conducting information warfare, any format and topic of projects can be used. The best tool for penetrating the enemy's information field is the so-called media viruses - information carriers (events, scandals, rumors, activities of organizations and individuals) that carry veiled ideas and messages in a hidden form. The modern development of the media and online environment makes certain adjustments to our lives. Gradually, new forms of relations between objects and subjects of society in its various spheres: economic, political, social and other are perceived as the norm. Informational and psychological confrontation is no exception. One of the forms of such confrontation is informational online network war, which should be understood as a complex of informational influences between social systems (groups) aimed at obtaining certain advantages in economic, military, political, cultural and public confrontations.
