Summary/Abstract: The aim of this work is focused on research of information security in organizations, with a focus on cybersecurity. In accordance with the theoretical analysis, the subject of the empirical part of the work is the analysis of information security in Serbia, in order to better understand the information security programs and management structures in organizations in Serbia. The survey covers a variety of industries and discusses how organizations assess, develop, create and support their programs to ensure information security. The survey included 53 companies. The results that were obtained enabled us to select five core elements of the program on the state of information security and cybersecurity in Serbian companies: most companies had not been exposed to cybersecurity incidents; in most companies policy, procedures and spheres of responsibility for information security exist, there are not enough controls to ensure compliance with relevant safety standards by third parties, top management and end-users are insufficiently familiar with cybersecurity risks, although they apply basic measures of protection, safety protection systems are very rare. The scientific goal of this work is to, on the basis of the results obtained, make conclusions that can contribute to the study of corporate information security with special emphasis on cybersecurity. The practical aim of the research is the application of the results for more efficient implementation process of security against cyber attacks in the Serbian organizations.
