Security Issues

Cyber ??security issues began to emerge along with advances in the field of information technology and the rapid increase in internet use. However, the greater the need for the internet in the daily activities of the world community, the more potential international security threats arise from activities within the cyber scope. Given the "borderless" nature of cybercrime, it is necessary to deal with other countries. Indonesia's participation in ADMM-Plus illustrates Indonesia's efforts to achieve national interests, namely cyber security through the external environment. This study aims to discuss Indonesia's defense diplomacy in achieving cyber security through ADMM-Plus 2014-2019. By using defense diplomacy theory and qualitative methods, this research illustrates that Indonesia's diplomacy in ADMM-Plus is still at an early stage, so it is difficult to say that the diplomacy has not been maximized. However, the presence of ADMM-Plus has a positive impact on Indonesia, especially in terms of cyber security.

Initiatives carried by companies, institutes and governments to flourish and embellish the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) among the public have led to its penetration into every walk of life. ICT enhances the efficiency of various systems, such as the organisation and transfer of data. However, with the digital and remote access features of ICT comes the motivation towards financial, political and military gains by rivals. Security threats and vulnerabilities in existing ICT systems have resulted in cyber-attacks that are usually followed by substantial financial losses. This study discusses the security in ICT from a business, economic and government perspective. The study makes an attempt to understand the seriousness of the security issues and highlights the consequences of security breech from an economic perspective. Based on the performed analysis, the factors behind these attacks are provided along with recommendations for better preparations against them.

The article is devoted to the examination of the formation of new vectors for international relations development within the global format of cooperation. The establishment and unification of BRICS in the international legal sphere through a wide range of common interests and views of its members towards issues facing the modern world reflect objective tendencies of world development to the formation of amultipolar international relations system and determination of particular large country actors of broad integration and having many dimensions. The authors reveal particular characteristics of the international-legal status of BRICS, which make it possible to have an effective impact on challenges facing the modern world. The legal BRICS status differs crucially from traditional legal approaches to international organizations. Acting as a special subject of world politics, creating more trusted interaction conditions, BRICS focuses its attention on the alternative world order principles within the new model of global relations. Such a format of multilateral cooperation, as well as more trusted and additional mechanisms of international interaction, gives the members an opportunity to demonstrate their geopolitical and geoeconomic world significance, and in addition their demanded humanitarian role, which, as the analysis of the mentioned actor demonstrates, is aimed at forming its own interaction model. The logic of the BRICS agenda extension to the level of an important global management system element demonstrates the goal in the field of action and, accordingly, intensive progress of humanitarian imperatives. For these humanitarian imperatives, the issues of international peacekeeping, security, protection, encouraging human rights and providing stable development are an objective necessity, especially for active demonstration of the members’ viewpoints on the international scene. For understanding the process of the alignment of international security humanitarian imperatives it is necessary to study the existing objective needs in conjunction with each country, member of BRICS.

The general factors of actualization of cybersecurity problems at the global level are considered. It is concluded that a distinctive feature of the modern approach to cybersecurity is its comprehensive and fundamental nature, which includes a whole system of regulations, plans and institutions. The main approaches and tendencies related to the development of a unified strategy in the field of cyber security at the supranational level of the EU are revealed. It is established that the main problem of effective cybersecurity is the creation of a single European political security space. Significant activity in this area of EU governing bodies is faced with the inability of a number of countries to fully comply with all directives, orders, regulations and other regulations. Due to complex coordination procedures at the national and supranational levels, which require considerable time, as well as due to the lack of a single political space in the EU, EU states and supranational structures do not always have time to respond to new cyber threats. The article identifies the main strategic goals of national information policy are: 1) ensuring cybersecurity and conditions for improving the efficiency of public administration; 2) creation of favorable conditions for ensuring constitutional human rights and freedoms in the information sphere, strengthening and preservation of moral values of society, traditions of humanism and patriotism, increase of scientific and cultural potential and formation of information culture of the population; 3) transformation of regional information resources into a strategic resource of stable and progressive development and creation of conditions for harmonious integration into the modern world economy on the basis of information openness and cooperation - entry into the international system of division of labor and exchanges in the information sphere.
