Keywords: formulation of concepts (definitions), national security, information security, information resources, regulatory and legal regulation in the field of national security

Abstract

Purpose: Establishing the factors affecting the formation of the definitions of “information security”, “information resources”, determining the prerequisites for their unambiguous interpretation and application during the development (improvement) of normative legal acts in the field of national security.

Method: Philosophical (hermeneutic, phenomenological, synergistic); general scientific (inductive, deductive, comparison, analysis, synthesis, generalization); special (formal-legal), specific-scientific (bibliometric).

Findings: The lack of a clear, legally established concept of “information security” creates difficulties when formulating and implementing tasks in the field of national security. The reason for this is the multifactorial meaning of the specified definition and the constant change of socio-political conditions. To solve this problem, it is proposed to formulate and legislate the definition of “information security”, introducing fewer broad concepts to its formulation.

Theoretical implications: The factors that influence the formulation of the definitions of “information security” and “information resources” from the perspective of ensuring the national security of Ukraine have been established; the ways for their improvement are defined.

Practical implications: The foundations have been laid for scientific support of the process of development and improvement of definitions in the field of information security.

Value: The determination of uniform approaches to the formulation and interpretation of the definitions of “information security”, “information resources” will allow for an unambiguous formulation and understanding of the tasks of information security of Ukraine as a component of national security, will create a basis for their successful implementation.

Papertype: theoretical.
