It also examines the impact of harmful online content and its psychological consequences, proposing measures for regulating and moderating such content. Further, it discusses the integration of mental health protection measures into national information security policies. The study underscores the necessity of combining technological solutions with mental health initiatives to create a safer digital environment. Ultimately, it aims to provide a comprehensive approach to mitigating mental violence while ensuring the security and privacy of Ukrainian citizens in the information era.
