Abstract

The article reveals scientific views on the theoretical construction of the concept of «information security». The components of the concept of «information security» in the context of current and previous legislation «information», «security», «national security» are analyzed. It is noted that the category "information" has the ability to be filled with different content depending on the scope. The concept of «security» is revealed as the impossibility of harming anyone or anything due to the manifestation of threats, that is, protection from threats. The concept of «national security» is considered in the context of the Law of Ukraine «On National Security of Ukraine» and the National Security Strategy of Ukraine. It is stated that information security is a component of an independent private national security, has its own structure and is an open dynamic system. The object of information security is information, information resources and information infrastructure. Ensuring information security is considered in the broad and narrow sense of the word: information security in modern society and information security in cyberspace (virtual social reality). It is concluded that the importance of the study of the theoretical category «information security» is determined by several reasons: first, the analysis allows a deeper study of the nature and purpose of this category in the system of legal regulation; secondly, to realize the value of complex (systemic) regulation of public relations in a certain sphere (information, information resources, information infrastructure); thirdly, to solve the problems arising in the process of legal regulation of one or another type of public information relations, as an important criterion of effectiveness is the degree of achievement in practice of the normatively established goal.
