Abstract
El ciberespacio es un ámbito en el que el avance y el desarrollo tecnológicos, imparables en su velocidad y en su impacto, contrastan con una situación de relativo impasse desde el punto de vista jurídico. El derecho se ha ocupado de su regulación mediante una aproximación sectorial, coyuntural y fragmentaria que difícilmente puede cubrir sus necesidades de normación. El aumento de la criminalidad y de la conflictividad cibernética constituye una prueba evidente y constante de las carencias de esa regulación. La ordenación jurídica del ciberespacio requiere un planteamiento global y coherente sobre la base de un análisis previo de esta realidad y de los condicionantes y presupuestos que impone y que la diferencian de otros espacios sujetos a regulación. La amenaza cibernética supone un cambio de paradigma porque es diferente, completamente deslocalizada, insuficientemente apreciada y de naturaleza estructural. La conflictividad ciberespacial se manifiesta, asimismo, de un modo singular en la cibercriminalidad, el ciberespionaje, el ciberterrorismo y la ciberguerra, diferenciándose de sus homólogas no virtuales y difuminándose los límites entre esas diversas categorías. El ciberespacio impone, también, la necesidad de abordar ciertos cambios en los modelos de organización interna e internacional
Cyberspace is a field where technological progress and development, both form its speed and its impact, are in contrast with a situation of relative impasse from a legal point of view. The law has regulated cyberspace through a sectoral, conjunctural and fragmented approach. The increase in crime and cyber conflictivity is a clear and consistent proof of the shortcomings and limits of this regulatory action. The international legal regulation of cyberspace requires a previous, comprehensive and coherent approach taking into account the uniqueness of cyberspace and based on the preliminary analysis of that reality and of the conditions and legal and non-legal features that prevails and that differentiate it from other areas subject to regulation. The cyber threat is a paradigm shift because it is different, completely delocalized, insufficiently appreciated and it is of structural nature. The cyber conflict is also manifested in a singular way in cybercrime, cyber espionage, cyber terrorism and cyber warfare, differing from their non-virtual counterparts and blurring the boundaries between these different categories. Cyberspace imposes also the need no address certain changes in the patterns of internal and international organization
