From the EU and NATO perspective, shared resilience, the identification of key vulnerabilities and a shared risk assessment demand a synchronization of efforts between partners, member states, civil and private sectors, and the EU-NATO institutions to contribute towards the deterrence against hybrid threats. As a first line of defense, shared resilience requires a shared understanding of security threats as well as a shared awareness and assessment of joint vulnerabilities and security risks. It also demands flexibility, institutional adaptability, responsiveness, strong leadership and cooperation, knowledge transfer and a rapid, agile, and efficient decision-making process.

In this context, settlement of an armed conflict is considered as a process of coherent interaction between international structures responsible for international security and peacekeeping as well as for security and defense sector components that can be targeted at protecting national interests in order to take all possible actions and measures conducted simultaneously or sequentially to solve issues that have led to unleashing the conflict.

Hybrid threats aim to exploit a country’s vulnerabilities and often seek to undermine fundamental democratic values and liberties.

The primary objective of this article is to analyse why the concept of hybrid warfare is so contested in the way it has so far been conceptualised by international security scholars and practitioners. In addition, this article will briefly discuss possible implications of the lack of con-ceptual clarity surrounding hybrid warfare for the West’s defence policy.

They are, usually, firmly delimited from risks and vulnerabilities, and can be internal or external, traditional, asymmetric, hybrid, conventional or non conventional, traditional or non traditional.

Human Analysis is likely to develop more towards to limit the number of data taken into account, but those data will have a high causal significance. Machine Analysis, on the other hand, will process huge amount of data and focus on correlations in the first place. Augmented Intelligence, will be a merger of both, that can manifest itself by different combinations of both.

Among the social factors that significantly influence immigration policies in the European Union, the authors singled out the following: demography, identity-culture, economy, socio-political and security factors.

Strategijsko planiranje bi svakako trebalo podrazumijevati investicijsko ulaganje u UI te se u značajnoj mjeri koristiti kao mehanizam alokacije raspoloživih resursa posebno u ma-lome gospodarstvu koje ima ograni-čene prirodne i privredne resurse kao što je hrvatsko.

Danas, slijedeći svoje tendencije ka članstvu u EU, budući da je već postala članicom NATO saveza, Sjeverna Makedonija daje sve od sebe da sigurnosni sektor, a posebno obavještajne i protuobavještajne službe, podigne na višu razinu i približi se svijetu sigurnosni standardi. Kao rezultat toga, posljednjih su godina uspostavljene nove službe i očekuju se promjene u nekim od postojećih obavještajnih službi.

Cyberspace has become an indispensable part in which special operations such as cyber war or warfare take place. The role of special war as the use of so-called soft power was emphasized. The country's number of potential adversaries in cyber warfare is unlimited, making highly endangered aspects of cyber civilian infrastructure, which is essentially military readiness, including the mobilization of forces through the civilian sector, also a likely target.

Obavijesti u cyber prostoru te javno znanje koje u njemu nastaje i koje se distribuira korištenjem tehnoloških sredstava, podložno je novim mogućnostima manipuliranja s realnošću.

Critical infrastructure (CI) involves elements that are fundamental to the normal operations of the human society. Resilience can be defined as the capacity to prevent, adapt, withstand and recover swiftly from both intentional and unintentional attacks. To achieve research objectives, a systematic review approach [Grant & Booth, 2009] can be used to identify and select related and relevant literature sources. This review technique can guarantee the quality and reliability of selected articles.
