The provisions of the Thailand’s National Cybersecurity Strategy 2017-2021 and the Cybersecurity Act 2019 being the key documents defining the system of information security guarantees are characterized. To obtain the most reliable scientific results, the system-structural, formallogical and formal-legal methods were used. The Cybersecurity Act 2019 establishes an effective mechanism for ensuring information security in cyberspace, both in institutional and regulatory aspects. In the former, a vertical of public administration and monitoring was created, in the latter, the sectors of the CII and the minimum requirements for the organizations of the CII were determined. A distinctive feature of the act is the regulatory justification for the restriction of human rights and freedoms in the implementation of its provisions, as well as the imposition of criminal sanctions for the crimes of state officials and private companies officers. Such sanctions act as an additional guarantee of human rights concerning personal data and freedom of information.
