Abstract

Today, information security has become quite important and is of interest to almost everyone in the world of technology, whether it is a simple mobile user or a person who uses a personal computer or a specialist in the field of high information technology. In other words, the category of "information security" covers both everyday life and the IT industry. Given the growing need for information security, there is a need to clarify the essence and content of this category in both the scientific and legislative spheres.

The article is devoted to the study of the category of «information security», which in recent years has been actively considered by scientists and is constantly gaining wider meaning and significance. Approaches to the interpretation of the concepts of «security» and «information security» are analyzed. Information security is considered a component of national security. Emphasis is placed on the rapid growth of researchers' interest in the issue of information circulation and information security in various fields of science. Law, in particular administrative law, has ceased to be an exception, as numerous works of scholars have been prepared on the study of information and information security and other phenomena related to information. Despite this, science has not yet developed uniform approaches to the analysis of information and legal phenomena. It is stated that today information security is rapidly becoming one of the most important legal and social problems facing not only Ukraine but the whole world. The problem is that in today's information environment, a lot of information is virtually created, stored and used, which is transmitted and stored electronically using networked computer technology.

Today, information security is an extremely important category, the provision of which has an impact on the proper observance of human rights and freedoms in the era of formation and development of the information society.
