Institutional and legal dimensions in state cybersecurity policy

Abstract

This article aims to identify the key institutional and legal dimensions of state cybersecurity policy, which are increasingly shaped by the growing use of digital resources. The central research question is: What are the most distinctive institutional and legal dimensions in state cybersecurity policy? The main hypothesis posits that these dimensions are primarily defined by specific EU strategies and directives, as well as legal regulations related to the Civil Code. Cybercrime threats, including viruses, malware, online fraud, and phishing, significantly influence these dimensions, as users of digital resources are often targeted by such attacks. The publication used several research methods, including analysis of source documents and subject literature as well as the institutional and legal methods.
