The social and economic development of the territories includes the existence of stable interregional food and commodity linkages, the formation of a food economy, an increase in food resources conducive to the development of the AIC and the entire economic system. Digitalization and the implementation of information technologies ensure high-quality information content of all subdivisions of the AIC, enable optimization of the flow of resources and goods within the complex, leading to facilitate the task of transforming the agro-industrial complex of Russia, further “effective and sustainable agro-industrial production that corresponds to the world level ensuring the country’s food security, the saturation of the market with food” [4]. An effective mechanism for the regional innovative economy management is, in our view, the complex establishment of a high-quality information base, the development of information technology networks to transcend traditional technologies. The success in the transition to the modern stage of the digital economy in the AIC prejudges the growing importance of the of the country, its regions and individual industries in the formation of a single information field. The federal policy policy is directed at creation of new information technologies and communication channels throughout Russia and all over the world. The regional policy in the field of information should be based on the interests of the regional users and the general federal interests of a group of industries located in the region. The sectoral policy in the field of information should take into account the interests of one industry, as well as enterprises and organizations within the structure of this industry.

The World Health Organization has declared that misinformation shared on social media about Covid-19 is an “infodemic” that must be fought alongside the pandemic itself. We reflect on how news literacy and science literacy can provide a foundation to combat misinformation about Covid-19 by giving social media users the tools to identify, consume, and share high-quality information. These skills can be put into practice to combat the infodemic by amplifying quality information and actively correcting misinformation seen on social media. We conclude by considering the extent to which what we know about these literacies and related behaviors can be extended to less-researched areas like the Global South.

Abstract: In this paper, we offer a brief summary of latest developments in honeypot technologies, used for malware detection and analysis. This includes not only honeypot software, but also methodologies to analyze captured honeypot data. As such, our focus in this work is to keep track of current developments related to traffic analysis, especially honeypot technologies, as a means of data capture and interpretation of malicious traffic. Zero-day attacks are still very hard to predict, then handle, by any security platform. Means to successfully predict an attack is of paramount importance to the world of cybersecurity. Effective network security administration depends, to a great extent, on the understanding of existing and emerging threats propagated over the web. In order to protect information systems and its users, it is of crucial importance to collect accurate, concise, high-quality information about malicious activities, for security researchers to be able to reverse-engineer, then understand and stop a malicious actor.

Abstract: Scholarly publishing and access to high-quality information may in fact be threatened, rather than improved, by the revolution in communications, particularly in a fully commercial Internet. The effects of the political revolution in Eastern Europe on scholarship and quality publishing are used as a touchstone of the dangers that occur when naïve revolutionaries make swift changes without fully recognizing the impact upon delicately balanced social institutions such as non-profit organizations. Résumé: La révolution en communications, particulièrement en ce qui regarde un Internet commercialisé, plutôt que d'améliorer l'édition savante et l'accès à de l'information de haute qualité, pourrait en fait poser une menace pour ceux-ci. Cet article examine comment la révolution politique en Europe de l'Est a influé sur la recherche et l'édition de qualité. Il utilise cet exemple pour examiner les dangers que peuvent courir certains révolutionnaires naïfs quand ils instaurent des changements rapides san songer à leur impact sur des institutions sociales à équilibre délicat comme les organisations à but non lucratif.

Zusammenfassung: Der Beitrag analysiert sowohl Schwachstellen als auch darauf aufbauend Handlungsempfehlungen und Lösungsvorschläge im Bereich der finanziellen Bildung von privaten Haushalten. Die Analyse der Schwachstellen umfasst eine kritische Sicht auf die Methodik zur Einschätzung finanzieller Bildung, die Beurteilung der finanziellen Bildung insbesondere junger Erwachsener, den Maßnahmenkatalog zur Verbesserung finanzieller Bildung und die Verbraucherinformationen, die sowohl als Voraussetzung für die Anwendung finanzieller Bildung als auch als Grundlage für eine Verbesserung der finanziellen Bildung im Kontext eines lebenslangen Lernens eine zentrale Rolle einnehmen. Zentrale Lösungsvorschläge zielen auf eine praxisnahe Meta-Bildung, die auf ein ökonomisches Grundverständnis, wenige Faustregeln und die relevantesten finanziellen Entscheidungen im Lebenszyklus ausgelegt ist, und ein gesetzlich vorgeschriebener Zugang zu relevanten und hochwertigen Informationen, um die Vergleichbarkeit von Produkten und Dienstleistungen im Bereich der Verbraucherfinanzen für private Haushalte und Informationslotsen deutlich zu verbessern und ein lebenslanges, praxisnahes Lernen zu ermöglichen. Summary: This article analyses weaknesses in the field of private households’ financial literacy and – building upon this – provides recommendations and solutions. The analysis of the weaknesses covers a critical view on the methodology used to measure financial literacy, the assessment of the financial literacy of young adults, the package of measures for the enhancement of financial literacy and consumer information, which play a central role as precondition for the application of financial literacy and as basis for the enhancement of financial literacy through life-long learning. Main recommendations and solutions are to establish a meta-literacy that is built on understanding basic economic principles, few rules of thumb, and the most relevant decisions in the life cycle. Moreover, a statutory access for households to relevant and high-quality information to significantly enhance the comparability of financial products and services for consumers and to enable a life-long learning in step with actual practice.

The Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB started since 2015 is created to optimize the RDB’s role. This study is aimed to gain some description about the level of information quality in Indonesian RDB, to obtain real situation on the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB, and to test whether the high-quality information will accelerate the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB.Design/methodology – The study was conducted using data from the annual report of Indonesian RDBs and additional in-depth interview with RDB practitioners. The technique of purposive sampling is used in this study with the data availability criteria. The statistic analysis uses multiple regression with t-test and F-test to test the influence of information quality and some control variables on the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB. Results – The Indonesian RDBs’ quality of information still cannot be perceived at a high level. The implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDBs has already run in the first phase of foundation building with various obstacles. The high-quality information produced by financial reporting of RDB is proven can accelerate the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDBs. Research limitations/implications – The theoretical contribution of this study is giving empirical evidence that the information quality accelerates the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB. The managerial  implication is that Indonesian RDBs must improve their financial reporting system and create some innovations for the successful Transformation Program. The main limitation of this research is the limited scope of study. It is recommended to make further relevant research on the same issue in a wider context to get more enriched findings.Novelty/Originality – The area of implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDBs has been insufficiently examined currently. Thus, this study contributes to this area by examining whether high-quality information produced by financial reporting will accelerate the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB.Keywords Information Quality, Financial Reporting, Banking Transformation.

BACKGROUND Recently, public and political interest has focused on people living with rare diseases and their health concerns. Due to the large number of different types of rare diseases and the sizable number of patients, taking action to improve the life of those affected is gaining importance. In 2013, the federal government of Germany adopted a national action plan for rare diseases, including the call to establish a central information portal on rare diseases (Zentrales Informationsportal über seltene Erkrankungen, ZIPSE). OBJECTIVE The objective of this study, therefore, was to conduct scientific research on how such a portal must be designed to meet the needs of patients, their families, and medical professionals, and to provide high-quality information for information seekers. METHODS We chose a 3-step procedure to develop a needs-based prototype of a central information portal. In the first step, we determined the information needs of patients with rare diseases, their relatives, and health care professionals by means of qualitative interviews and their content-analytical evaluation. On the basis of this, we developed the basic structure of the portal. In the second step, we identified quality criteria for websites on rare diseases to ensure that the information linked with ZIPSE meets the quality demands. Therefore, we gathered existing criteria catalogs and discussed them in an expert workshop. In the third step, we implemented and tested the developed prototypical information portal. RESULTS A portal page was configured and made accessible on the Web. The structure of ZIPSE was based on the findings from 108 qualitative interviews with patients, their relatives, and health care professionals, through which numerous information needs were identified. We placed particularly important areas of information, such as symptoms, therapy, research, and advisory services, on the start page. Moreover, we defined 13 quality criteria, referring to factors such as author information, creation date, and privacy, enabling links with high-quality information. Moreover, 19 users tested all the developed routines based on usability and comprehensibility. Subsequently, we improved the visual presentation of search results and other important search functions. CONCLUSIONS The implemented information portal, ZIPSE, provides high-quality information on rare diseases from a central point of access. By integrating the targeted groups as well as different experts on medical information during the construction, the website can assure an improved search for information for users. ZIPSE can also serve as a model for other Web-based information systems in the field of rare diseases. REGISTERED REPORT IDENTIFIER RR1-10.2196/7425
