Today, the implementation of measures for cybersecurity of information and communication systems and critical infrastructure of the state, countering and responding to computer incidents and cyber influences - remains one of the major tasks in the field of information security and cybersecurity of the state.
Defining the directions of Ukraine᾿s foreign policy in the field of cybersecurity, the Strategy establishes that Ukraine will intensify its participation and partnership in international processes of standardization and certification in the field of cybersecurity, increase its “presence” in international, regional and other standardization bodies and institutes and certification of this area in the geopolitical sense.
Based on the need for scientific substantiation of the institutional framework for the development of cybersecurity, special attention should be paid to the development of standards in the field of new IT technologies (including artificial intelligence, cloud databases, quantum computing and communications) and basic Internet architecture.
The review of the problem field of research shows that in general the Internet should be comprehensive and open, the technologies supported and used in it should be focused on the person, his basic freedoms, guarantee neutrality to his privacy, ensure his privacy in cyberspace, and any restrictions should be carried out only in accordance with laws and regulations (standards). Ukraine᾿s position is that the use of certain technological processes should be legal and safe, in accordance with existing ethical standards.
Current laws and regulations of the state, current national standards, including those developed and implemented, have been formulated taking into account promising areas of development of mechanisms for institutional support of cyber security and based on Euro-Atlantic experience. This allowed them to be implemented quite effectively in the regulatory framework of Ukraine. Nevertheless, during the analysis and generalization of theoretical approaches to the essence and content of some definitions, experts came to the appropriate legal conflict, namely that national standards contain requirements in partially similar areas of Ukrainian society, only with other names, such as: “information security”, “information technology security”, and “cybersecurity”.

Thus, the author considers in detail the theoretical and practical significance of the draft Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to Some Laws of Ukraine on Standardization in the Areas of Cryptographic and Technical Protection of Information, Cyber Security, Counteraction to Technical Intelligence” at the initiative of MPs Fedienko O.P., Klochko A. and others, registration number 6568 of “28” January 2022 (first reading).
Therefore, based on the implemented Cyber Security Strategy, which entered into force on 28.08.2021 and it is obvious that in the process of achieving its goals requires a systematic approach, the issue of legislation and standardization in cyber security and defining a specific subject of standardization in this area is extremely important.
