State Security is closely linked to the security of its cyberspace.

To ensure cyber security of the state the Security Service of Ukraine has intro-duced complex measures to counter online terrorism, prevent cyber espionage, defeat hacker attacks and refute subversive activities online.

SSU experts systematically uncover pseudo-patriotic communities in social net-works, “botofarms” and separatist agitprops recruited by Russia.

In recent years, the Service has gained substantial experience of defeating hacker attacks. The SSU has a high-powered information counterintelligence unit and its experts effectively interact with partners from EU and NATO countries, being united by the shared goal of protecting critical infrastructure objects and infor-mation resources from cyber threats.
