Системите с изкуствен интелект като инструмент в борбата с фалшивите новини и дезинформацията

Author(s): Kuzman Minkov Martinov / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The emergence and development of new information and communication technologies has opened up vast opportunities for people to communicate, create and distribute content through multiple services and platforms, exercising their rights on and off the Internet. They have become the new center of attraction for active information exchange due to their accessibility, sense of community and understanding between its members. The direct communication is both the advantage and the disadvantage of this type of media. Along with their indisputable advantages, their main disadvantage was also discovered - the possibility of being used as a means of disinformation among the public and subsequent manipulation through the spread of so-called „fake news“. This article examines the possibilities of using artificial intelligence systems as a tool in the fight against fake news, summarizing scientific research on the subject. At the same time, the issue of the risks of using artificial intelligence systems to freedom of speech is also discussed.

Приложение на изкуствения интелект за защита на данни в здравеопазването

Author(s): Rositsa Roumenova Rogova / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

Modern technologies and mechanisms of communication through them are occurring at a rapid pace in the field of healthcare. This definitely leads to taking strict measures to strengthen the protection of the data used and protect it from cyber attacks. More and more medical institutions use various technologies to communicate with their patients, as well as to store medical information and documentation, in compliance with all regulatory requirements for non-violation of human rights. In recent years, hospitals have increasingly relied on modern artificial intelligence systems to facilitate their day-to-day medical and administrative practice, while also taking care to prevent any violations of patients' rights.

Lifting Sanctions Against Russia in the Energy Field as a Tool to Resolve the Global Food Crisis

Author(s): Emil Asenov / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

In response to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, the European Union imposed a significant number of individual, economic and diplomatic sanctions on Russia. An important aspect of the sanctioning policy concerns energy resources imported from Russia into Europe. The implementation of these sanctions is currently taking place in the context of a global food crisis. Russia imposed an embargo on the exports of some of its agricultural products, while also imposing a blockade on Ukrainian ports. As a result of these actions, a number of countries face a prospect of food supply shortages as Ukraine and Russia are among the largest exporters of agricultural products. Resolving these problems requires timely and effective solutions. In conclusion, the article proposes the implementation of mutually agreed measures by the European Union and Russia to counter a global food crisis.

THREE FAMILIES OF CRISES SUPERPOSED, INTERDEPENDENT AND MUTUAL INTERFERING IN THE CORONAVIRUS CRISIS AND THEIR IMPACT ON THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS PERSPECTIVE

Author(s): Iulian Chifu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The Coronavirus or Covid-19 pandemic has launched a health crisis with an important impact by accelerating three categories of crises: the dormant and rampant ones that were here long before this crises; the correlated crisis coming from the pandemic explosion and the ways to limit its impact; and the independent crisis, not directly related by Covid-19 but prompted and accelerated by the pandemic. As a result, this lead to a maximum complication for the decision makers since it created overnight premises for a completely different International Relations Perspective. The scenarios for the world of tomorrow and the possible arrangement for a global governance are the aims of our study.

THE IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL SECURITY

Author(s): Viorel ORDEANU,Lucia Ionescu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Transmissible infectious diseases are caused by living biological agents that can be transmitted in different ways from the source, causing outbreaks, epidemics or pandemics. The current epidemiological situation, the COVID-19 pandemic is serious due to its rapid transmissibility, strong complications, and the fact that it is an unknown disease. Given its characteristics, similar in parts to a biological agent used as a disabling weapon, in this paper, we will address the current COVID-19 pandemic as an ongoing “situational experiment” in order to simulate a targeted biological attack (on a strategically important locality) with infectious effects that extends nationally and internationally. This type of pandemic has destructive potential through the created health crisis, followed by the economic crisis, aggravated by the information crisis (infodemics) and finally the social crisis with unpredictable consequences

THE DIGITAL SCARS LEFT BY THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Author(s): Ion Alexandru Manoliu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Correlating the economic prosperity of a nation with the quality of its cyber infrastructure is not a game of chance. Improving cybersecurity in society, the industrial system and public administration will become increasingly stringent. The lack of security professionals makes companies, organizations and social services more vulnerable. As the global health emergency from Covid-19 taught us, coordination from the top of the chain of command is important. Whether it is to minimize intrusions, data loss or the spread of malware, the collaboration of all state institutions and private sector is essential. Developing new capabilities and tools to improve the cyber security of the country system is a challenge of the utmost importance for the growth and well-being and security of all. Cyber security education in the conscious use of the network therefore will play a central role in both the defense and development of a country.

STRATEGIC CULTURE AND SECURITY CULTURE – A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS – THE RELEVANCE OF SECURITY CULTURE IN THE 21ST CENTURY

Author(s): Antonia Teodora Mariș / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The present material proposes, in its first chapter, a conceptual delimitation for the terms strategic culture and security culture, starting with security. Further on in the paper, we will make a comparative analysis between the two, at the same time dwelling on the shift from strategic culture to security culture and arguing the relevance of the latter, in the context of the current century, making specific remarks to Romania. The 21st century outlines new challenges in developing and consolidating security culture by introducing a myriad of factors that need to be taken into consideration. Spectacular changes in technological progress, the ubiquity of digital technologies, the digital revolution, the global digital order, the increasing importance of digital platforms, the speed with which information is transmitted, algorithmisation of personal life, the power to change and direct public opinion, cultivation and aggravation of disputes are only a few of the characteristics of the 21st century.

USEFUL TOOLS FOR MEASURING AND MONITORING CYBERSECURITY

Author(s): MANTEA Paula-Diana / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Cybersecurity is one of the new dimensions of security, the one responsible for ensuring a secure online space, a space which can be used safely in all areas of people’s lives - from finance to social media, education, economy, politics, information, debate and even military. Because over 50% of the population is connected in 2020 to the internet, both for work and personal purposes, as numerous transactions are being registered in the cyberspace every second, government and private sector alike need to work together to secure this space to develop early-warning systems and protect the IT infrastructure of any kind of attacks. There are tools for measuring and monitoring cyber-attacks, which need to be explored and constantly improved. But this is not enough as the use of these tools needs to be completed by the joint efforts in raising the users’ awareness in protecting against any attacks. Additionally, exploring and taking advantage of the benefits a digital economy and society can offer should be supported by investments in education and training while maintaining an updated and secure infrastructure.

PHYSIOGNOMY OF INTERNATIONAL MILITARY OPERATIONS IN THE CURRENT OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT

Author(s): Cosmina-Andreea Neculcea / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

In an ever-changing world, national security systems must recurrently adapt their capabilities to meet the new challenges of the international security environment. The way of approaching conflict and the physiognomy of military actions can be configured only through a thorough understanding of the current operational environment. Studies on demographic trends suggest that most future armed conflicts will take place in urban areas, whereas urbanization and unrestricted access to the Internet make the world become increasingly interconnected and interdependent.

THE IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING IN THE SECURITY AND DEFENCE. WHAT IS MISSING IN THE ROMANIAN CSDP RELATED TRAINING?

Author(s): SIMINA Ovidiu Laurian,Bogdan MARINESCU,Grigore SILAȘI / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The paper discusses the importance of training for the success of Romania’s contribution to the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) of the European Union. At the time when the EU Member States are taking concrete measures to implement the European Compact for a Civilian CSDP (2018) and the second annual progress report is planned, Romania is still struggling with the inter-institutional negotiation of the would-to-be National Strategy for the Implementation of the Civilian CSDP Compact, not yet approved by the Government. However, training is not seen as a strong point in the future strategic document, probably because there is not real coordination in the field. Despite the increased interest in CSDP related training (the number of the Romanian members of the European Security and Defence College multiplied five times in just two years), the training institutes are not working in a coordinated way and most of their CSDP training seems mostly related to individual projects or targets and not following a national policy, nor national objectives related to the Civilian Compact implementation. The debate opened by this paper aims to increase the awareness at the national authorities’ level and to suggest the way ahead in liking training to the Romanian policy on CSDP.

DEFENSIVE SYSTEMS AND POLITICS. THE VAUBAN SYSTEM AND THE CASE OF THE ALBA-IULIA FORTRESS

Author(s): Elena-Loredana Florescu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The Italian fortress of Palmanova, built in 1593 and designed by Gulio Savorgnan represented a turning point in the studies of the military engineers of that time. The French engineer Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban, through the fortress of Neuf-Brisach, created the “Vauban defence system”, reminiscing of the layout provided by the fortress of Palmanova, approximatively 100 years later. In this paper I intend to analyse the reason why, in 1711, the appointed architect Giovanni Morando Visconti used the Vauban defence system in designing the Alba fortress in the present-day Romania. Following the political and historical background that led to the building of these fortresses and the strategical points that they represent, I intend to identify the similarities between them and whether following an architecture that is based on the ideal city of Renaissance represents a political statement.

MEASURING GOVERNANCE AND ASSESSING TRENDS IN DEMOCRACY DURING TIMES OF PANDEMIC

Author(s): Alexandra SARCINSCHI / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Bringing to attention the main theoretical landmarks regarding the national governance is a necessity since there are heated debates on the role of the state in the management of phenomena that transcend its borders such as international migration and the COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, the paper aims to carry out a non-exhaustive analysis, but focused on recent trends in the study of governance, correlating them with the latest events and determining phenomena that manifest themselves in the international security environment. The goal is to determine whether or not and to identify how the pandemic has influenced governance as a whole, the decline of democracy in particular, as well as national security, especially in the case of European states.

THE ROLE OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND PUBLIC SAFETY FORCES FACING BIOLOGICAL THREAT

Author(s): Iulian-Constantin Manailescu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that both state structures and citizens have not been prepared to face up a biological threat. The hesitant way in which, at first, action was taken to limit the spread of the new virus led to the emergence of situations that changed the relationship between the state and the population. The trust of a part of the citizens in the state structures has been altered, especially because of the restrictions imposed to limit the spread of the virus. Those who are in direct contact with citizens and who apply these restrictions are the law enforcement and other forces protecting public order and safety. At present, the countries of the world are in a position to think over some strategy meant to restore the confidence of their population in these forces. This distrust, along with conspiracy theories, endangers national and regional security because it is the ground for the proliferation of populism and extremism. The paper presents the sticking points of the relationship between the citizens and the law enforcement and public safety forces that a strategy at the state and regional level should solve in order to restore a level of trust at which security is ensured.
