Using the methods for analysis and synthesis, the challenges that deterritorialization poses to the strategic management of cyber security are brought out in the study. Summarizing these challenges allows the construction of the triangle of contradictions, which explains the thesis for the modern characteristics of cyberspace, where localism becomes a mission impossible, and deterritorialization raises cybersecurity problems that still have no particular solution.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sean S.

The creation of the catalog of roles provides a tool for achieving security in cyberspace by studying and knowing the specific characteristics of destructive roles and the respective constructive human factor roles.

Encompassing at the same time both social and heterogeneous communicational smart networks with the active role of the humans.

Nations and the international community invest significant efforts to assure certain terms and responsibilities in this virtual dimension. The elaboration of national, NATO and EU cyber security strategies in a very short time received a high priority. The questions about the responsible institutions assigned in the strategies, guiding principles to follow, and the way of implementation are approached differently by different nations. The goal of this article is to propose a method that offers a more consistent approach to the development of cyber security strategies. The key research question is whether the proposed approach results in a more consistent national cyber security strategy that covers all the necessary national requirements and expectations, and thus makes it easier to harmonise with the variety of international requirements. In order to verify the proposed method, the article presents a brief overview of the results achieved in the case of the development process of Croatia’s National Cyber Security Strategy.

The lack of coordination between responsible institutions, established cybersecurity mechanisms, and well-trained specialists made private companies and public institutions an easy target for cyber attacks performed by malicious actors like hacktivist groups, terrorist organisations and state-sponsored companies. The consequences of such attacks damage reputation, business processes and affect the image of the country on the international scene. This article shares the experience of Moldova in the efforts of planning and building cybersecurity. It is written from the point of view of Moldova&amp;rsquo;s Cybersecurity Centre &amp;ndash; CERT-GOV-MD, whose governmental status and active involvement in national cybersecurity development processes allow to provide a broad overview of different situations, in which Moldova and its state institutions found themselves, and the problems faced along the road to achieving the stated goal. In this regard, the article covers the period from the initiation of building cybersecurity until the most current results.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>27</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zlatogor Minchev</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Future Threats and Challenges in Cyberspace</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CSDM Views</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cyber threats</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cybersecurity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cyberspace</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Web 3.0</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">July 2015</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Centre for Security and Defence Management</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sofia</style></pub-location><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This report is based on an expert study and findings of related studies on the evolution of threats and challenges in cyberspace with a five-year outlook. The focus is technological and social aspect of current and future web solutions and services in the processes of communication and enhancing living environments in the digital age. We can forecast preservation of the role of the human factor as generator and user of technological innovation, with the consequent cyber threats in the new security environment. Anticipated threats in the 2020 horizon relate to the development of Web 3.0 technologies and 4G/5G communications, with emphasis on protection and control of personal space and data, cloud services, multimedia communication in social media, internet of things, robotic systems with artificial intelligence, and the effects of digital money. This report aims to support the development and the discussions of Bulgaria’s national cybersecurity strategy.

Hence, security of cyberspace turned into one of the most important challenges of Twenty first century, while cybersecurity is already seen as a cross-cutting, strategic national issue that impacts all societal levels. National cybersecurity strategies are expected to provide answers to the novel challenges and to guarantee security of cyberspace. This report provides analysis available national cyber strategies that allows identification of good practices and remaining gaps. For Member States of the European Union it is important to synchronize their national strategies with the EU strategy for cybersecurity.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
