“…Cybersecurity refers to a link between different indicators such as measures of risk evaluation, methodologies for risk management, skills and policies to reach the general target -improvement of asset, sensitive information or data security. Moreover, the important part is to ensure that the feedback about the confidentiality, availability and compliance of information is gathered and provided to responsible institutions (Cavelty, 2018). An efficient strategy for cybersecurity requires a high-level engagement of all accountable elements in the organization.…”

Purpose – due to the constant increase of cyber-attacks not only the measures of identifying and controlling cyber risks are created, but also the methods of estimating possible cyber-attacks financial costs should be developed to increase business preparedness. The purpose of this research is to forecast potential costs of cyber-attacks in Baltic countries. Research methodology – to achieve the aim of the article and prepare a prognosis of possible cyber-attacks costs the Estimation the Global Costs of Cyber Risk Calculator V 1.2 tool was used. Findings – estimated costs of cyber-attacks in Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia are highest in the public business and ser-vices sector and also in the defense sector. According to conducted calculations the costs of cyber-attacks in Lithuania will reach 1% of GDP of Lithuania by 2026. Research limitations – in this research the costs of cyber-attacks are estimated regarding industries of business but not excluding specific cyber threats. Therefore, for the future research possibilities could be the analyses of specific cyber risks and their impact to various business sectors. Practical implications – the results of the research may be useful in practical approach for preparing the risk manage-ment tools, evaluating possible damage and effect of cyber-attacks to business, also increasing preparedness level and business resilience. Originality/Value – this estimation model has been not used to evaluate and discuss cyber-risks costs in Lithuania among previous researches, therefore the topic and conducted results are original and significantly relevant for further analyses of cyber security issues in Lithuania.

“…Security, so the literature says, is entrenched in symbolic and cultural contexts, which generate meanings for actors and audiences through relational dynamics. Lene Hansen, who has most prominently theorized the role of images in securitization processes 9 PJAC New Series 7 (1/2018): 7-28 important and need special attention, they do not have the power to securitize anything by themselves. Rather, pictures depend "upon someone or somebody -a securitizing actor -who holds that the image demonstrates a threat-defense urgency and calls for an immediate response" 10 .…”

This paper focuses on how cyberthreats have been represented in popular visual culture (Western and Asian). These cultural products are an interesting site where the technical and the political effects of cyberthreats are presented together, giving them a particular weight and place in the discourse. The paper discusses three dominant representations (machine out-of-control, computers used as weapons, and amassing or withholding of data as threat) and then identifies three commonalities between them. The first concerns the surprising "passivity" of technology, making the human the main problem in this story, the second is the importance of non-virtual geography, turning machines into mere additions of normal human life, and the third concerns the normalization of the threat through time. Cyberthreats are part of our lives now and they are so deeply embedded, they cannot be separated from them anymore.

“…He suggested focusing on a third understanding to bridge the gap between each other: technology is defined as the embodiment of social knowledge. He believes that, corresponding to this, research on cyber politics will benefit from two innovations: cyber security as the focus of social practice (making and stabilizing by spreading knowledge about vulnerabilities) and the use of practical attention and elimination of these loopholes [6]. Ahlawat P studied the problem of node capture from an adversarial perspective.…”

In the process of implementing the Internet of Things, the object itself has identity information and identification equipment and encounters difficulties in communication security during the process of entering the network communication. Just like the Internet and wireless sensor networks, there are security issues in information transmission. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the mobile Internet of Things network security technology depression to protect the communication information in the mobile Internet of Things. This paper mainly studies the network security technology of intelligent information terminal based on mobile Internet of Things. This article will analyze and compare the mainstream encryption algorithms of the current mobile Internet and choose a safer and more secure HASH algorithm. We study the flow of key management, key generation, key distribution, verification key distribution, key update, key storage, key backup, and key validity time setting for mobile Internet of Things, using an existing identity cryptosystem. Based on encryption, the design technology of key management and authentication in this paper is improved. Compared with other methods, the storage consumption of this method on GWN is relatively medium. In the initial stage, the storage is 32 bytes, then in registration stage 1, it reaches 84 bytes, in registration stage 2, it is 82 bytes, and then, in the login authentication phase, the number of bytes rose and reached 356 bytes in authentication phase 3. Experimental results show that this protocol has certain advantages in ensuring safety performance.
