Cyber threats to national security: The case of „Fake news“ in Montenegro

In the last two decades, new threats to national security have emerged through the cyberspace. Due to ever-expanding users of the Internet and social media, the flow of information has never been greater. One of the consequences of that trend is the problem of information reliability. The term „fake news“ was created to describe false information in the digital area. The recent arrests of journalists in Montenegro have shown how spreading fake news can endanger national security, most notably by inciting panic and public discord amongst citizens. Authors of this paper aimed to show how public reactions to fake news lead to threats of national security in Montenegro
