ABSTRACT
Objectives:
The main objective of this paper is to analyse the legal regulations governing the issue of supervision and control of compliance with cybersecurity standards by entities responsible for safeguarding cyberspace against threats.

Material and methods:
The primary research method used in this paper is the doctrinal legal research method. It was applied to analyse the applicable legal regulations governing the supervision and control of activities in the sphere of securing cyberspace against attacks. In turn, the law theory method, also used in the studies whose results have been presented in this paper, allowed the assessment of actions being taken as part of supervision and control.

Results:
The fact that the issues of supervision and control in cybersecurity are subject to statutory regulations should be regarded as positive. However, these legal acts exhibit certain flaws.

Conclusions:
The legal regulations concerning security architecture must, on the one hand, take into account the freedom of service provision in cyberspace and, on the other hand, keep a lookout for continuous threats concerning unlawful interference with information and communication systems which are intended to provide such services and at the same time allow their use by customers.
