Abstract

Cybersecurity has become a critical policy area in the 21 st century, transcending national borders and becoming intertwined with economic, social, and geopolitical issues. Many countries have adopted their own legal frameworks in this area, although the specific approaches implemented may vary depending on local legal traditions and other factors. Regulatory acts in the information security field cover a wide range of topics, from laws protecting data and critical infrastructure to preventing cybercrime and protecting against information and psychological impacts. Based on an analysis of legal frameworks from various countries, this paper identifies general trends in the development of information security legislation.
