Summary/Abstract: After the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union, the security environment in the international arena was also changed. One of the most important aspects would be to be the awareness that security as a concept can no longer be viewed only from the perspective of the military component. The major international actors have understood that the security focus is no longer on the military component, that the major security threats come from the economic and IT sectors and have acted accordingly. Modern, highly computerized society is now a reality in which the borders are ignored and any space or temporal constraints are overcome. Governments, public and private sector companies, national and international financial institutions, education, culture and scientific research - benefit from effective leadership, information and communication. As time passes, a new concept has emerged - the cyberspace - where there are new types of vulnerabilities, new attack vectors, and where attackers are no longer limited by their geographical location.
