Disinformation of the digital era revolution in terms of state security

Purpose: The purpose is to discuss concerns related to the phenomenon of disinformation in the age of the digital revolution, with a particular focus on the security aspects.

Additionally, the publication cites the content of supporting publications, affiliated in the field of information security in a global environment. Data has been gathered from reports that estimate disinformation awareness in the digital society dimension. The IT and digital society environment are constantly, hence, the study is supplemented with original research results, confirming that there is a low level of public awareness concerning the disinformation in the digital environment.

Originality/Value: Awareness of the social environment in knowledge about disinformation in crisis conditions is very important for safety. The publication is addressed to researchers, decision-makers, entrepreneurs, employees, the educational environment, and consumers.
