Summary/Abstract: The phenomenon known as cybercrime is gaining momentum over time, becoming an increasing threat to the security of the twenty-first century. The problem is growing and is becoming a growing challenge both for the legislator, who is required to take steps in the field of legal regulations, and for law enforcement agencies, which are expected not only to ensure security, but also to counteract the phenomenon of cybercrime. It is not the right question if, but when, a cyberattack will occur. It is necessary to be properly prepared for its early identification and proper reaction. This reality places new demands on the organization, which is currently forced to design and operate information processing systems in secure cyberspace. The huge impact on information security organizations cannot be underestimated, every smallest decision in the organization is based on the flow of information, including in ICT systems. Taking into account the above, information was taken into account as a decisive factor determining the functioning of the organization. According to the authors, such an assumption requires describing the impact of information security management on the proper, efficient functioning of the organization in cyberspace. Increasingly, the concept of information is becoming a key category, a central point of consideration, which is a set common to research conducted at the interface of various fields and scientific disciplines. When discussing the organization of its operation and functioning, it is impossible to undertake this discussion without specifying the role of information in it, including that processed in ICT systems.
