Polycentric governance, big data and artificial intelligence: Tools for citizen security in Colombia. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2024, vol.66, n.3, pp.11-25.  Epub Feb 22, 2025.

In the digital era, in which cyber-attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated and persistent, the ability to collect and analyse data in real time is essential to respond quickly to emerging threats. However, the complexity of managing the various interaction networks, as well as the multiplicity of their actors, motivates the search for new perspectives in the fight against cybercrime. This article proposes the use of polycentric governance in Colombia, supported by tools such as big data (BD) and artificial intelligence (AI), to contribute to citizen security through new perspectives for data protection. Through a qualitative approach, the Colombian cybersecurity and cyber-defence scenario is explored to interpret the context of threats in cyberspace and identify challenges and opportunities related to the use of polycentric governance, BD and AI for strategic anticipation and defence of the nation.

Keywords : Big data; cyber-defence; cybersecurity; polycentric governance; artificial intelligence; citizen Security..
