The sustainable functioning of society in the conditions of information challenges during the full-scale Russian-Ukrainian war is a key condition for ensuring civil security, conducting methodological and scientific research on this issue makes it possible to prepare the best practices of crisis management. Accordingly, the scientific task is the theoretical substantiation of the components of the development of crisis management from a hybrid confrontation to a full-scale war and their characteristics. In the basis of the analysis of the mechanism of public crisis management, information countermeasures are defined as its main lever, and its significant characteristics are substantiated. It can be argued that the problem of crisis management as a result of a full-scale war has not been sufficiently studied by domestic and foreign scientists. The main emphasis was on anti-crisis management in the conditions of hybrid war, as a component of measures to respond to the emergence of a crisis. The research methods were content analysis, hypothetical and general scientific. On the basis of the analysis of previous scientific studies, problematic issues of public management in the field of information countermeasures, in particular elements of crisis management, have been identified. The issue of dissemination regarding the organization of information interaction between public administration bodies during a full-scale war was investigated. Issues of crisis management in conditions of full-scale war, taking appropriate measures for timely response. The conducted research is a theoretical confirmation of the hypothesis that information is the basis of making crisis management decisions and is a key factor of state security. The analysis of the crisis management system shows that one of the components of the activities of management bodies is aimed at the organization and support of important life support systems. Considerable attention is also paid to the system of methodological and organizational problems of countermeasures in the field of information provision.
