The place and role of cybersecurity in the system of national security are determined. The state of the system of protection against cyber attacks in the developed countries of the world, such as France, Japan, China, South Korea and the United Kingdom, was analyzed. The main shortcomings and perspectives of protection of cyberspace are revealed. The use of modern information technologies in state structures, as well as in society in general, proposes solving information security problems as one of the main ones. The economy, logistics and security of the country increasingly depend on the technical infrastructure and its security. To improve the effectiveness of the fight against cybercrime, developed countries have long started the appropriate work needed to create their own cyber security strategy. Incidents in the field of cybersecurity affect the lives of consumers information and many other services and cyber attacks aimed at various objects of infrastructure of electronic communications systems or technological processes management. Modern world trends in the development of cybercrime and the strengthening of cyber attacks indicate an increase in the value of combating it for the further development of society, which in turn predetermines the assignment of certain groups of social relations of the cybersphere to the competence of legal regulation. The current situation with cybercrime requires constant improvement of methods the fight against cybercrime, the development of information systems and methods aimed at ensuring the cyber security of the country. Necessary tasks are the development of a national strategy on cybersecurity, which will include tactical and strategic priorities and tasks in this area for state bodies. So, the issue of cyberspace security, the fight against cybercrime is relevant both at the international level and at the level of the individual country, and therefore needs further consideration.

With the development of Internet technologies, cybercrime has also evolved and diversified. Much of the world's economic and business information comes from electronic information, and the need for remote work caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has further increased demand for e-services, which in turn has contributed to increased technology risks, threats, and incidents. The main task of the states is to actively fight against the negative socio-economic, financial, and political consequences caused by the growth of cybercrime. The main purpose of the study is to assess the negative consequences of cybercrime in Georgia, the main threats to information security, to develop recommendations for the prevention of cybercrime, to improve its legal regulation mechanisms. The fight against cybercrime in Georgia is carried out using criminal norms. The law "On Information Security" is in force in the country, Georgia's cyber security strategy has been developed, but this process needs constant development. The main task of the state is to gradually improve the legislation and bring it in line with modern technologies, to ensure close cooperation between the state and society, to raise the awareness of civil society. It is essential to constantly inform the public and companies about cyber threats, as effective prevention is the best form of crime prevention policy.

Background. In modern conditions, information is not just a technical category. The penetration of the latest technologies into all spheres of life has turned information into an economic category, which has become one of the most essential components of the functioning of the market and, at the same time, a regulator of economic processes. Therefore, interest in the problems of international information security is growing, both for the international community, the state and its regions as a whole, and separately for sectors of the economy, for institutions, for individuals. Analysis of recent research and publications hasshown that the issues of interaction between information and international information security, as well as with the economy, remain unresolved. An important issue is the analysis of information security conditions in the framework of modern world markets and globalization processes, the impact of the consequences of the coronavirus pandemic on the world economy. The aimof the articleis to consider the features of ensuring information security in the conditions of the Ukrainian economy, as well as to identify the nature of the transformation of international information security. Materials and methods. In the course of the research, the methods of analysis and synthesis, abstraction, systematization, identification, classification, comparison and generalization were used. Results. Despite the existence of a lot of theoretical and applied research in the field of information management technologies, the problem of a model description of the main characteristics of information interactions in the context of ensuring information security in organizational and economic systems remains very relevant. Based on the results of this study, the place of the information system in the enterprise management contour is shown, the logical connections of the documents of the information security management system within the framework of the international standard ISO/IEC 27000 are revealed, the problems of international information security that need to be addressed in the context of globalization are identified. The solution of these issues will contribute to the rational restructuring of the sphere of informatization and information policy of the state. Conclusion. It is proved that in Ukraine, the insufficient level of informatization and constant delays in solving the problems of information security and international information security, as well as the negative information impact, lead to huge losses, a slowdown in socio-economic development and a decrease in competitiveness at the world level. To prevent this, a rational restructuring of the sphere of informatization and information policy of Ukraine is necessary with the involvement of international support and the active participation of our state in the transformational processes of international information security to counter information threats using modern methods and legislation in this area. The outlined conceptual provisions require further scientific research of the methodological aspects of economics and management in the context of the transformation of the national economy under the influence of globalization processes and the place of the digital economy in it, the prospects for the use of new methods and management tools in the era of digital economy.

Today, patronage is the key source of non-governmental support of the socio-cultural advancement of the state because, as the world’s practice shows, the state funding is often not enough for conserving and developing the national and cultural heritage. Across the world and Europe, increasing attention is paid to the traditions of charity, corporate philanthropy is in progress, and business ethics are growing. In developed countries, the pursuit of charity activity is caused by a high level of social responsibility of business entities. Both large corporations and wealthy people establish charitable funds or provide a good deal of money for relevant purposes. The problems of patronage or sponsorship as means for guaranteeing the realization of socio-cultural programmes, research initiatives and continual activity of not-for-profit organizations are topical and need an extension study in terms of conditions and prospects for the development. The purpose of the article is the analysis of the experience of administrative regulation of patronage and sponsorship in different countries and its growth potential in Ukraine in the context of international integration and scientific and technological progress. The situation is complicated by the fact that this regulatory scope has originated more recently in the world’s practice, and many problems remain unsettled. For example, let’s consider some forms of financial rewards used in the rest of the world. In the developed countries, there are models of cooperation with a private fund in the social, cultural, academic and other spheres of social life. They are as follows: the state as a leader; private fund as a leader; partnership and functional division of labour between the state and capital. In social practices, they usually co-exist with a dominant one of them. The first model prevails in France and Italy, the second – in the USA, the third – in the Federal Republic of Germany. Recently, there has been a gradual transition to the third model, which will become dominant in Western countries. Compared to Western Europe, there has been no moral rehabilitation of wealth in Ukraine, which has affected the motivation of charity. It is noteworthy that in the last decade, especially in European countries, state and state-social funds, which are financed using budget funds and the contributions of patrons, have been created. In general, analyzing various forms of patronage and sponsorship in the field of culture of the countries of the European region, it can be argued that in modern Western countries there is a sweeping trend to decrease direct state support of culture by indirect. The attraction of funds of entrepreneurs and non-governmental organizations in various forms is purposefully stimulated by state cultural policy, laws on patronage. In Ukraine, state intervention in the charity area is minimal. It is limited to the statutory regulation of charity activity, registration and accounting of charity organizations. At the same time, some specific normalization of patronage and sponsorship is next to none because it is distinguished among other charity activities mostly by patrons, sponsors, and mass media.

The article analyzes the current approach to the identification of new branches in the legal system of Ukraine.The modern world does not stand still and is constantly evolving and gives impetus to the development of all spheres of human life, respectively, there are relationships that require legal regulation.Some scholars believe that in the presence of an independent subject of legal regulation, its ownmethodology of legal regulation and a set of specialized legislation, it is possible todistinguish an autonomousbranch of law. It is determined that the emergence of new branches of law is hindered by the dominant concept of the existence of only the main ones. Proponents of this concept categorically reject the possibility of the existence of relevant secondary, complex branches of law. This scientific approach inhibits the study of modern social relations. Negative attitudes towards the separation of new branches of law inevitably lead to gaps in the field of special legal research and, as a consequence, to a lack of qualified personnel with specialized knowledge. It is suggested to take into account the positive experience of foreign colleagues of lawyers who boldly present the achievements of current practices and are not afraid to consider them branches of law, we mean educational, sports, military, gender, «cryptocurrency», admiralty law and others. It is concluded that the division of law into new branches allows more effective regulation of legal relations in relevant areas, given that global trends are increasingly in demand for universal lawyers, but with specialization, with in-depth knowledge in one or more areas of law. Keywords: branch of law, subject of legal regulation, method of legal regulation, complex branch of law

This paper is a comprehensive study of the problems of criminal law as a remedy for human rights and freedoms in the modern world. The relevance of this subject lies in the systematic violations of constitutional human rights and freedoms and the inaction of the criminal law in such cases. Nowadays, the criminal law as a remedy for human rights and freedoms in national and international law is described by imperfection in its adaptation to rapidly changing social relations, which, accordingly, leads to problems in their legal protection. There are various reasons for this in the legal sphere, such as gaps in the legal provisions, conflicts of legal regulation and inconsistency of the rules of legislation with existing public relations in the state. All of the above determines the relevance of the subject matter of this study. Thus, the purpose of this study was a comprehensive analysis of theoretical and applied issues relating to the remedies for human rights and legitimate interests against socially dangerous encroachments, and the formulation of scientifically sound proposals for improving the current legislation of Ukraine and the practice of its application in this area. Ultimately, this study identified the legal characteristics of human rights and freedoms at both the national and international levels. The remedies for rights were demonstrated through the lens of criminal law. In addition, the study analysed the forms of implementation of international practice in the national legislation of Ukraine as a remedy for human rights and freedoms in the modern world. The significance of the results of this study was expressed in the further research of related subjects concerning this issue, namely the history of the development of EU criminal law standards and the historical establishment of the concept of human and citizen rights and legitimate interests. Furthermore, the materials of this study can be used in the preparation of educational materials, methodological recommendations, as well as training in various fields of legal science. This, in turn, will allow properly using the criminal law protection of human rights and freedoms without violations on the part of criminal justice bodies

The arrival of information and communication technologies is nothing new. The number of people using these technologies and moving in cyberspace is growing, and therefore it is an important role of the state to respond sufficiently to such developments. A fundamental role of the state is to create a stable security system consisting of complex legislation as well as creation of a legislative environment capable of responding flexibly to the growing number of diverse incidents in cyberspace. Sufficient legal regulation consisting of unambiguous determination of competencies and tasks of individual subjects represents the basic pillar for the creation of a stable security system. The role of the state is also to maintain existing and create new partnerships with organizations that are able to provide relevant information and knowledge in the field of cyber security.

Growing concern about healthcare information security in the wake of alarmingly rising cyber-attacks is being given symmetrical priority by current researchers and cyber security experts. Intruders are penetrating symmetrical mechanisms of healthcare information security continuously. In the same league, the paper presents an overview on the current situation of healthcare information and presents a layered model of healthcare information management in organizations. The paper also evaluates the various factors that have a key contribution in healthcare information security breaches through a hybrid fuzzy-based symmetrical methodology of AHP-TOPSIS. Furthermore, for assessing the effect of the calculated results, the authors have tested the results on local hospital software of Varanasi. Tested results of the factors are validated through the comparison and sensitivity analysis in this study. Tabulated results of the proposed study propose a symmetrical mechanism as the most conversant technique which can be employed by the experts and researchers for preparing security guidelines and strategies.

The article examines the theoretical and legal foundations of economic crimes of a transnational nature formed under the influence of globalisation processes in the world, the growth of international crime and other factors. The author provides a conceptual description of transnational crime as the main category of transnational criminal law, including economic crimes. Scientific views of domestic and foreign scientists on the nature of crimes of an international nature, including criminal acts in the economic sphere are analysed; the most dangerous and widespread economic crimes are characterised. Attention is paid to the legal regulation of these relations, universal and regional conventions, other sources. The authors justify the need to criminalise transnational economic crimes in national law, regardless of whether a particular state is a party to international conventions adopted by international organisations. The authors pay special attention to the characteristics of the subjects of the crime and reveals the debatable nature of their definition, in particular, analyse the problematic nature of the recognition of a legal entity as a subject of crime. The authors use a conceptual approach to clarifying the subject of study, which determines the reasonability of theoretical research, and modern principles of scientific methodology: the principle of scientific pluralism, impartiality, comprehensiveness of research, historicism, complexity and others. A modern requirement in the methodology of science is the rejection of methodological monism, which has long been dominant in theoretical and historical studies of social (including legal) phenomena and the rejection of the ideology of scientific knowledge, which provides an objective, unbiased attitude to any legal phenomena, legal systems, etc. The purpose of the article is to provide theoretical and legal characteristics of international crime in the economic sphere, identify the transnational nature of these crimes, clarify the state of legal regulation of these relations at the international level, as well as international cooperation to combat these crimes. Based on the study and theoretical generalisation of the research topic, the authors emphasise the following conclusions: modern world problems are global in nature; economic crime transcends borders and becomes international; economic crimes of a transnational nature are recognised as socially dangerous acts that encroach on the system of social relations in the field of financial and credit, investment, information, trade, etc. activities, and have a transnational nature, i.e. go beyond one state; countering economic crimes of a transnational nature is within the internal competence of states, but international cooperation in this area also has an objective basis; the legal basis of international cooperation of states are international legal anti-criminal conventions, which define the criminal acts and obligations of states to criminalise economic crimes and provide legal assistance in criminal proceedings, in particular in extradition and transfer of accused and convicted persons, disposal of confiscated property, joint investigation and other issues.

The article is devoted to the study of the concept of the mammoth in regulatory documents and cultural practices. The analysis of both Russian and international experience allowed to generalise the existing legal provisions regarding the regulation of mammoths, as well as to determine the role of mammoths in the world and Russian culture, including the culture of the indigenous peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East. The methodological basis of the study is represented by the comparative analysis of sources and materials, historical-comparative and chronological methods, the historiographic method, as well as methods of philosophical and art history analysis. The study revealed the fact that in the field of legislation and legal regulation of extraction and sale of mammoth ivory in the world, the issue of the status of mammoths is raised only in connection with a discussion of the survival of rare species of elephants. Measures to prevent extermination of elephant population, encompassing a ban on trade, including trade of mammoth ivory, cause heated discussions and are controversial for craftsmen, antique dealers and art collectors. The issue of legal regulation in this area is particularly acute for the Russian Federation, due to the lack of a finalised legal and regulatory framework, both at the federal, regional and municipal levels. The image of the mammoth in the world and Russian culture is embodied in a number of visual practices. These are heraldry, animation, book graphics, sculpture and fine art. Sign and symbolic forms of the mammoth embody religious and mythological characteristics of the animal, demonstrating its significance in people’s worldview, as well as indicating of the “living” memory of it in the modern world
