INFORMATION SECURITY AS THE BASIS FOR THE REALIZATION OF CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS IN WAR CONDITIONS

It is proved that ensuring security in the information space is an important function of the state, which is of paramount importance in the present conditions. The concept of «information security» is considered, its components are defined. The normative legal acts regulating the procedure for ensuring information security, as well as the points of view of scientists who worked within this topic are analyzed. It is determined that the possibility of the creation of effective mechanisms for ensuring information security, first of all, are possible taking into account the types of information and the corresponding types of information threats, which under martial law have even more negative consequences. The exercise by citizens of the rights provided for by the Constitution of Ukraine under martial law is limited due to various circumstances. First of all, such restrictions are significant in the temporarily occupied territories, where the rights not only to access reliable information are limited, but also other rights provided for by the Basic Law of the state. Such rights are primarily the right to education, which is currently being implemented through information and communication technologies, access to which is significantly limited due to the lack of stable access to the Internet, the lack of electricity supply, and the restriction of access to communications, especially in the temporarily occupied territories. At the same time, their restoration is impossible until the de-occupation of such territories. It is concluded that the expansion of the powers of local self-government bodies in the relevant territories will provide an opportunity to more effectively counteract information threats and will allow to respond more quickly to changes in such threats.
