Regarding the content of the concepts of "Information Weapons" and "Information Terrorism" – sources of encroachments for the national security of Ukraine

Abstract

The article deals with the application of various information technologies in implementing encroachments on the basis of national security of Ukraine, and developed in this regard, scientifically substantiated measures aimed at preventing said socio-hazardous phenomenon, taking into account existing national and real threats to national and real threats. the interests of Ukraine.

Proceeding from this, it is proved that the latest decisions of the Ukrainian authorities regarding sanctions against pro-Russian propaganda TV channels are determined by a number of objective and subjective factors. In particular, unnecessary activities in Ukraine are non-state in the form and anti-state on the content of the media with a wide viewer audience, which systematically distribute and systematically distribute the narrative of Russian propaganda in Ukraine. In this context, attention was drawn to the fact that since the beginning of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine and in fact, their activities remained unpunished and without the proper sanational policy of the Ukrainian state, which has adversely affected the state of protecting national interests and, in particular information security.

At the same time, as shown by the study of practice, Ukraine's current legislation does not solve this issue, since the issued problem is limited to literally several laws that make it possible to adequately liaise those who are threatening information and national security. Language, first of all, is conducted on the Law of Ukraine "On Sanctions", the scope of which is rather limited and does not allow the violator to be prosecuted for the actions that are obvious signs of "Information Terrorism". Consequently, it should be recognized that in the presence - a complex application that requires an urgent solution, including the theoretical level, namely, as shown by the results of the analysis of scientific, normative legal and other so sources, to subjective factors of sharp activation and the actual change in the sanctional policy of the current central Ukrainian authorities can be with great probability to attribute the desire of the ruling elevation to return electoral leadership after his loss of the political party "Servant of the people" and exit the electoral leaders of the pro-Russian political party "United Platform – For Life”, which showed the data of an all-Ukrainian survey of public opinion, conducted from January 27 to February 1, 2021, Kyiv International Institute of Sociology.

Moreover, as it is proved on the doctrinal level, the ratings of OPPP is consistently and purposefully "closed" precisely because of the means of television communication by unlawful influence on the audience pro-Russian narratives (a set of connected real or fictitious events, facts or impressions that make up the narrative Text), indicating the presence of domestic political determinants that determine the attack on the information security of Ukraine, as well as the use of the so-called information weapons in this process, that is, a set of technical and technological means and techniques that "Information Terrorism" is carried out.
