Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to connect the increasingly prominent issue of national securitywhich is becoming increasingly important among the member states of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and is based on American models but adapted to national characteristics in a broad sense, with recent experiences in regulating the Internet. The author contends that in the information age, a key issue of national security lies in responding appropriately to various offensive, intelligence-gathering, or disinformation activities conducted through cyberspace and the internet. Addressing this challenge requires regulatory solutions that, while observing the principles of necessity and proportionality, adequately reflect the particularities and interconnections of both internet regulation and national security. However, this task is complicated by the peripheral treatment of national security as a professional and academic field. Therefore, the study seeks to clarify the conceptual foundations of national security and explore their points of intersection with internet governance, thereby laying the groundwork for further research into the regulatory questions emerging from these intersections.
