Ensuring cyber security in scope of cyber defense is currently among the top priorities of the EU Common Security and Defense Policy (CSDP). Matters included in scope of cyber defense are a competence of the Member States and cooperation at EU level in this area is governed by decisions of the EU Council based on unanimity. This means that the European Parliament (EP) in the field of cyber defens acts only as an opinion-forming body expressing its position through the adoption of non-legislative resolutions. The aim of the article is to analyze the content of these resolutions and present the EP’s opinion on the challenges facing the EU in the field of cyber defense. It should be stressed that the EP is the EU body that strongly emphasizes the need for a common EU approach to these issues. Given that the area of cyber defence is subject to intergovernmental cooperation mechanisms, the EP considers that the EU needs to develop not only cooperation and coordination mechanisms at the level of its institutions, but also to take action to enhance the EU’s capability to counter cyber threats. These significant cyber defense capabilities should be essential elements of the CSDP and of the development of the European Defense Union, as it is becoming increasingly difficult to counter cyber attacks for the Member State level alone. The role of the CSDP should be to ensure that the EU, in cooperation with NATO, has an autonomous strategic capability to act in the field of cyber defense.

States use cyberspace as one of the platforms for pursuing national interests, also in the context of armed conflict. Due to their inherent purpose, certain principles of international law also apply to the activities of entities (state and non-state) in cyberspace. The main research problem was defined as the following question: under what conditions could the terms in international law be used to describe the events in Estonia in 2007 that imply the possibility of eventual responses or demands by victim parties consistent with international standards? In the article, the events in Estonia in 2007 were compared to existing methods of cyber warfare. The main research methods that were used to achieve the essential objective were: analysis of legal documents and critical analysis of the literature on the subject. The analysis is interdisciplinary in nature and will be particularly useful to researchers of international political and/or military relations and those interested in aspects of international security.
