ABSTRACT
Insecurity becomes a structural part of the interconnected world and security is an active process of dealing with disruption on the lowest level possible. In developing this argument about resilience and spatiality, this chapter focuses on the centrality of language in the analysis of governmental programs. It follows an understanding of space, discourse and governance as mutually constitutive: they bring each other into being. The chapter analyzes the theoretical, political and practical effects that European Network and Information Security Agency's (ENISA) reconceptualization of the Internet as interconnection ecosystem entails. As expressed in performativity and relational space theory, the chapter followed the idea that the understanding of space is closely linked to the discourses that describe it and the way in which actors relate to space through experience, practices and concepts. As opposed to J. Reid, who argues that resilience governance abandons the idea of security completely, the chapter traces how security is redefined as a process instead of a state.
