Abstract: The world's countries formulate laws, regulations and legal frameworks to define broad aspects of cyberspace within their domain, including institutions responsible for the local cyberspace, their areas of activity and responsibility, administrative subordination and even those who stand at their heads - including the definition of criminal activities in cyberspace, crime and terrorism, and topics such as the state's cyber borders and sovereignty, the citizens' online information security as well as their right to online privacy and the ways to ensure it .The research examines Israel's governmental activity to regulate cyberspace, the scope of the existing regulations and laws, their development over the years, and an attempt to fill in the gaps in the current regulation activities of cyberspace in Israel. The findings reveal that despite Israel being a cyber power based on various international indicators and media references over the years, and despite the activity of the Israel government starting in 1997 to regulate the issue of cyberspace, Israel currently lacks a governmentally approved cyber law defining Israeli cyberspace, institutions, activities and responsibilities. Further research may compare Israel's cyber regulations with other similar cyber nations and portray differences and lessons to be learned by Israel to regulate its cyberspace, in addition to Israel's involvement in international cyber conventions and regulations.
