Due to the constant growth of the number of online services that public and private sectors provide to the citizens as well as to other legal entities, safe cyberspace of Montenegro is becoming one of national priorities. Smart phones, social media, systems for industrial production control, numerous medical devices controlled by information systems are only some of the examples of putting technology to use, or the benefits it provides. According to estimates, there are about 8 billion of inter-connected devices in the world. It is estimated that by 2020, the number of devices would exceed 20 billion, which speaks for the degree of integration of physical systems with the computer systems, resulting in greater effectiveness, accuracy, greater economic benefits, but also more serious adverse consequences in case of a cyber attack. Bearing in mind increasing integration of cyber and physical systems and adverse consequences which could be caused by a compromised cyber system, cyber security and its developed national, regional and international architectures play a crucial role. The accelerated development of inter-connected, innovative technologies must also be followed by a fast development of cyber-security solutions, namely the protection from a wide spectrum of threats and that certainly represents a challenge to which all of us must respond with joint forces. gro is exempt from it. We witness an increasing number of cyber incidents which affect Montenegro, through the recent ransomware campaigns, DDoS attacks against the public infrastructure, various online frauds, etc. Year after year, the number of these cyber incidents is significantly increasing. We must be aware that the threats to the IC infrastructure which may threaten its availability, privacy and integrity may also affect the functioning of the society as a whole. Countries, international organisations, security companies, and various other entities are constantly developing and implementing new security mechanisms, however, simultaneously there is a process in which cyber criminals are inventing innovative and sophisticated techniques to bypass them. With regard to the development of information technologies and cyber security, according to the UN report i.e. International Telecommunication Union (ITU) report called “Global Cybersecurity Index1 2017”, Montenegro ranks 71st out of 193 member states. However, due to daily occurrence of new threats, our efforts with regard to cyber security must follow that pace as well.  Undoubtedly, cyber security is a challenge of the modern age and, as such, not even Montene1 Global Cybersecurity Index 2017.
