Summary/Abstract: Regulations for the protection of classified information are extremely similar in developed Western countries. The XXI. century, these states are struggling in a close political and military alliance to meet the security policy challenges of the present and the future. For this reason, the mutual protection of their diplomatic and military secrets plays a key role.
