Abstract:
This article provides an overview of Kazakhstan's cybersecurity initiatives at the
international level. The current threats in the field of cybersecurity are identified. The author points
out the reasons why it is necessary to develop international cooperation in the field of information
security. The author especially focuses among them on the integrated nature of the information space,
which allows cybercriminals to carry out attacks while physically they are located on the territory of
another country. The author also highlighted such threats as the evolving nature of cyber threats and
the imperfection of existing legal systems on information security. The risks associated with the
vulnerability of software applications, which are becoming relevant in connection with the large-scale digitalization of the provision of public services, are separately noted. The author notes that the fight against cyber threats is not the task of one state, but of the entire international community. And in this context, Kazakhstan's initiatives to ensure cybersecurity at the international level are of particular importance.
