Summary

Introduction

Information appears, disappears, changes at a very rapid pace. Analysts, analytical software and data center networks do not keep up with the information. The subjects of information relations are interested in ensuring the protection of this information. Such information in the Ukrainian legal system is classified as restricted information. National authorities are obliged to take appropriate legal measures to ensure the preservation of this information from the moment of creation, prevention of unauthorized destruction, distortion or access to it. Public relations related to these types of restricted information are regulated by law, but there is legal uncertainty and inconsistency in the concepts of some types of protection of restricted information, which are found in legislation on the subject of research. That’s why, the purpose of the article is to highlight the results of the analysis of problematic issues to determine the content of the concept of protection of restricted information, in particular the results of analysis of existing terminology used by Ukrainian legislation on protection of restricted information
