Policy of international organizations on information security

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the problem of international information security. It is part of overall international security. International information security is a state of international relations that excludes a violation of global stability and threats to the security of states in the information space.Information threats are a new challenge to international peace and security. Therefore, for effective counteraction, it is necessary to adapt to modern realities. Since international organizations are created to unite the efforts of states to achieve certain goals, they (organizations) must also adapt to changes. They must transform their policy in the field of international security and, in particular, in the field of information security. Accordingly, the subject of this research is the transformation of the policy of international organizations in the field of information security.International organizations are adapting to new threats in two directions:1) transformation of the structure of the international organization itself;2) transformation of the security policy of international organizations.The transformation of the security policy of international organizations can be divided into internal and external.The internal transformation of the security policy of international organizations presupposes a reorientation (or additions) of their goals of activity. If earlier, speaking of global security, they meant only military-political security, today it is also food security, climate security, space, energy and information security.External transformation of the security policy of international organizations presupposes close cooperation with regional organizations, departments and governments of states (according to the level of communication) in the field of information security.Defending its information interests, each state must take care of information security. The strengthening of the Ukrainian statehood also requires the same. A balanced state information policy of Ukraine should be formed as an integral part of its national security. And also as a part of socio-economic policy in accordance with the priorities of national interests and threats. From a legal point of view, it is based on the principles of a rule-of-law democratic state and is implemented through the development and implementation of relevant national doctrines, strategies, concepts and programs in accordance with applicable law.
