A/72/315 Proposals The Ministry of Communications and Information Technology requests the developed countries that have cyberpolice to assist and cooperate with the Ministry in the establishment of the cyberpolice. To address cybercrimes and to fight seriously against this phenomenon a coherent system (conducive for criminal information) should be established at the international level. One of the important solutions for the security of the Internet is to establish Internet governance. Through Internet governance, a basis can be provided for the exchange of confidential information and data between all departments and offices of the Government for the implementation of the network mentioned above. In this regard, the Ministry requests the cooperation of all Member States. The Ministry also requests Member States to support the staff of the Ministry to fight cybercrime and improve information security, by providing them with vocational and technical training programmes. Armenia [Original: English] [31 May 2017] General appreciation of the issues of information security Given the pace of e-society development in the Republic of Armenia, issues related to information security are acquiring significant relevance, having a huge impact on all aspects of national security. The trends in information and communications technology (ICT) pose qualitatively new threats and challenges requiring systematic coordination and new approaches to ensure the secure use of ICT. Taking into account the use of “information warfare” techniques in different conflict environments, Armenia attaches vast importance to ensuring information security for the maintenance of international peace and security. Efforts made at the national level to strengthen information security and promote international cooperation in this field Armenia has undertaken activities aimed at safeguarding State and public interests in the field of information security and harmonization of relevant legislation with international standards. A series of normative acts governing the sphere have entered into force, including the national security strategy and the information security concept, as well as laws on the fight against terrorism; State and official secrets; electronic documents and digital signatures; per sonal data protection; freedom of information; and the mass media. Pursuant to the relevant decisions of the Government: (a) A number of practical measures were taken to ensure the protection of publicly accessible information of government bodies on t he Internet and provide a secure connection of their information systems to the Internet; (b) Minimum requirements for official Internet websites of government bodies were adopted. 4/25 17-13876
