Summary/Abstract: In the context of the security environment and the conflicts approach methods, the early study of these techniques and procedures used by the aggressor in the hybrid conflict appears to be a necessity that cannot be ignored. It looks like, using a not that profound analysis method on those hybrid conflict lines of efforts, we came up with the conclusion that this conflict is a living organism, which continuously affects the victim and, even if at the beginning needs various and consistent types of resources, it become a symbiotic one that feeds on the victim’s vital resources. It has limitations, which in general consist of the maturity of the society and the democracy on which the aggressor concentrated his efforts. In the proximity of the Romanian territory the most evident victim of the hybrid conflict is the Republic of Moldova, but the similarities of the analysis results with the actual situation of our own state cannot be ignored.
