Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of information threats to the military security of Russia, caused by the geopolitical processes of the modern world. Describing the capabilities of new information technologies, the author notes that in the conditions of informational reality, the modern geopolitical confrontation is carried out not so much by armed means, as by means of “soft power” technologies. This determines the need to expand the military security system of Russia, taking into account the transfer of geopolitical confrontation from the armed forms to the information sphere.
Keywords:
military security, information reality, geopolitical confrontation, information war, cyber-crime, information security, “soft power” technologies, spiritual security
