Attention is drawn to the scientific understanding of the terms ‘cyberspace’ and ‘cybersecurity’ by domestic and foreign researchers of this subject. It is noted that there is still no clear definition of these terms and this complicates the scientific comprehension as well as further practical overcoming of the problems and challenges that arise in cyberspace. Nowadays cyberspace is seen as an important security imperative, since on its implementation depend economic, military, social and other spheres of state activity. The article discusses the issue of cyber-power of the state. It is noted that essentially the same, yet modernized, approaches that were formulated by the classics of geopolitics can be applied for cyberspace. The article also describes the main threats to the cyber security of Ukraine in the context of Rus- sian aggression in cyberspace. With the beginning Russian hybrid war, where cyber warfare is one of its prominent components, Ukraine needs to search the ways and mechanisms to ensure cyber security from the current threats that are emerging. Attention is drawn to the issue of patriotic volunteer projects with the goal to confront the Russian cyberattacks. It is indicated that in modern conditions, public associations, as an integral part of civil society, are a full-fledged participant in the process of ensuring information security of Ukraine. The article draw attention to the fact, that with the beginning of the Russian invasion to Ukraine, the transformation of legislation concerning the information, including on cybersecurity has begun. It is analyses the main legal acts in Ukraine that have been adopted since 2014, which regulate the sphere of cybersecurity.
