Abstract

With the development of the Internet and the technologies that serve and control it, we are entering a new digital age. This transformation is different from any of the previous similar transformations. Advances in technical fields such as language processing, machine learning, and deep learning have significantly improved the handling and use of social networks, the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and more. These advances have certainly improved the functioning of companies, organizations, governments, society as a whole, and the daily life of an individual. These improvements have also created some new challenges, with cyber security being one of the main challenges.

Keeping up with new technologies, security trends, and threat intelligence is essential to staying cyber-secure. The first step is to understand what information might be valuable to the third party, and then how they can access it. Therefore, it is important to identify cyber threats in order to develop ways and tools to counter them.

The EU cyber security policy aims to protect against cyber threats and cyber attacks, as well as to ensure security and stability in cyberspace, it includes various regulatory and legal instruments designed to ensure security in cyberspace and counter cyber threats, and which are the basis for the creation and operation of a number of institutional tools for ensuring cyber security in the EU. For example, the EU regularly develops and updates its cyber security strategy, which sets out general principles and approaches to ensuring security in cyberspace.

The lecture is devoted to issues of regulatory and legal regulation of cyber security and countering cyber threats in the EU.
