The information space is the sphere of activity connected with the formation, creation, conversion, transfer, use, and storage of information and which has an effect on individual and social consciousness, the information infrastructure and information itself*. The definition of information space is wider and more encompassing of that of cyber space especially in regards to how the information space is protected compared to the protection of the cyber space. A modern example to attacks to the information space if represented by fake news which can be created and spread without any attack to the cyber space but which can have devastating effect on a society comparable or even higher than an attack to the cyber space. *Keir Giles and William Hagestad, “Divided by a Common Language: Cyber Definitions in Chinese, Russian, and English,” 2013 5th International Conference on Cyber Conflict, (NATO: CCD COE Publications).
