Abstract
The article examines the most significant challenges to national security in modern conditions of the world order transformation, which include destructive informational and psychological impact, large-scale falsification of history, fake news, propaganda of misanthropy, russophobia, manipulation of the spiritual sphere using social engineering, promotion of the cult of consumption in the mass media and stereotypes that reduce a person’s ability to think critically, inculcation of legal nihilism, hatred and hostility towards state authorities, pejorative attitude to the idea of patriotism, etc. The techniques of aggressive destructive influence on the worldview and cognitive-mental sphere of a person in the information space are camouflaged under the promotion of innovative technologies, including using artificial intelligence, pseudoscientific theories, alien cultural concepts. Their veiling requires creation of adequate mechanisms for searching, detecting, fixing, removing and investigating traces of criminally destructive communicative activity using information technology and the development of modern forensic techniques to prevent and neutralize mental and cognitive attacks on information and ideological security in order to protect national spiritual values. Criminalistics is considered by the author as a theoretical and applied basis that makes it possible to identify, neutralize and effectively prevent criminal hybrid threats in order to ensure national security in mass media.
