General Aspects on Cyber Security and Its Importance for Ensuring Collective Security

The cyber domain is a fundamental element of modern life, which together with the energy field sets the whole society in motion, makes it work and develop, but at the same time, it hides numerous dangers and offers numerous challenges, which can have consequences for both the individual and collective levels, which could endanger the security of states and regions. Ensuring security in the cybernetic environment is essential for the functioning of the whole society, which tends to be digitized and involves colossal efforts, both financially, humanly and technologically. Because the cyber environment offers many opportunities, but also multiplies and amplifies vulnerabilities, states pay particular attention to its understanding and security, aware that this extremely complex and difficult to control environment can pose a direct threat to national and collective security. In the cybernetic environment an individual can do the same damage that an entire army can do, and the consequences of any action can be difficult to determine, due to the interconnectedness and interdependencies that are established between domains and between states.
