Criminal legal background of cyberspace management

Abstract

The article deals with the problem of criminal law prerequisites for managing cyberspace. The author notes that the increasing complexity and the increasing use of cybertechnologies and infrastructures are sources of potential risk to cyberstability and cybersecurity. More serious are the threats posed by external events, such as natural disasters or attacks by governments, criminal organizations or individuals. However, the expansion of cyberinfrastructure and cyberservices will provide greater opportunities and benefits, but will also lead to additional vulnerabilities and new challenges that could undermine personal and public security and safety of our societies. The author points out that at present the development of information and communication networks makes it necessary to consider the issues of information security not only at the international level, but also the question of solving the problem of unified management of such networks in the context of international security. At the same time, the achievement of the set goals in this sphere presupposes a political compromise between all the UN member states and the involvement of all interested parties in this process.
