The regulation of digital assets in the Republic of Moldova constitutes a strategic pillar for national security, grounded in the harmonization of domestic legislation with international requirements. The current legal framework transforms intangible assets into legally protected entities, a process guided by Directive (UE) 2022/2555 (NIS 2) and the Budapest Convention, which establish global standards for combating cybercrime. This security architecture is consolidated through Law No.48/2023 on Cybersecurity that imposes rigorous control and resilience mechanisms over critical infrastructures and digital services. The integration of digital assets into the civil circuit is supported by the provisions of the Civil Code of the Republic of Moldova regarding incorporeal assets, while information integrity is guaranteed by Law No.133/2011 on the Protection of Personal Data. Through the Digital Transformation Strategy 2023-2030, the state establishes a supervisory regime aimed at preventing hybrid attacks and protecting informational sovereignty. Thus, the forms of regulation are not merely administrative norms, but genuine defensive shields that ensure a resilient digital environment, capable of supporting innovation without compromising user safety or state stability in the face of contemporary cyber challenges.
