The paper explores the subject of Russian authorities’ reaction to realities and effects of the current technological revolution. The content of this response is outlined, yielding a fundamentally new level of mastery over substance, energy and information. The technological revolution is considered as a challenge to public authorities, i.e. a problem – the most important one by its essence, scale, impact on the present and the future of all society’s areas and the public life in general. In Russia, this challenge is particularly relevant due to the country’s growing technology gap. Statistical data and facts confirming this widening gap are provided. It is emphasized that an adequate response to this emerging challenge cannot be partial or local; it needs to have systemic nature and connection with all key aspects of the state policy. A misalignment of current Russian authorities’ aspirations, imperatives and practice with the technological revolution’s logic and needs is demonstrated. The state policy does not match the interests of innovative development, does not create the necessary conditions for this development or its subjects. As a result, the main potential subjects of technological innovations (the paper identifies the main groups of such subjects) objectively cannot create or implement new technologies and have no subjective interest (incentives / motivation) for that.

This article discusses the burning issues of ensuring information security in modern economic conditions. The purpose of this study is to analyze the current state of the effectiveness of information security in the conditions of the emerging digital economy in the Russian Federation. According to the research conducted, the number of cybercrimes in the economic sphere increases every year. The largest percentage of cybercrime is committed in the banking sector of the economy. Banks of the Russian Federation have developed information security systems and services that deal with issues of ensuring the security of economic operations. One of the key security tools is the use of cryptography. The Russian Federation is actively developing software products in the field of encryption, but these programs do not have recognition in the global information security market. The obtained results allow us to make a conclusion about the development of the market of information products in the field of protection of economic security, but it is necessary to develop software products that will meet international standards in the field of information security. The results obtained are of theoretical and practical importance for specialists in the field of security and economics. The results obtained can serve as a foundation for conducting more extensive research on the state of the information security system of the digital economy in the Russian Federation.

Emergence of new technologies and modernization of existing information technologies, development of information and telecommunication processing and storage systems have increase the level of information security, necessitating an increase of information security’s effectiveness with the complexity of data storage architecture. Security of information from unauthorized access is an essential measure to prevent material and non-material damage to its owner. So it is very important to take into account the efficiency of the subsystem of access control and data security in order to ensure security of some information system. Accordingly the threat of information leakage has made the means of information security and cyber security one of the mandatory characteristics of information and telecommunication systems and information security has become an integral part of professional function. Under conditions of the hybrid war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine? the number of cyber attacks on military information and telecommunication systems has increased. At the same time their technological complexity has increased too. This process necessitates the improvement of information security systems and the process of providing access to them by using modern types of users identification. Access control is an effective method of information security. It regulates the use of information system resources. User’s identification is an important and integral element of access control system. An analysis of modern types of users identification is presented in the paper. The technology of QR-code is considered: the principle of formation, the types of coding, the structure of elements, the advantages of its usage. The interconnection between its components was established. Prospects for further research are the development of an algorithm and software application for user identification to provide access by QR-code to information and telecommunication systems for military purposes.

Introduction. The level of the shadow economy is important for the development of any state, identifying the goals and priorities of its development. The shadow economy in Russia is the leading one among the problems that destroy the state system and pose a serious threat to national economic security. Materials and Methods. To identify the state of the shadow economy in the Russian Federation in the context of its regions, the tax approach was used, on the basis of which the GRP indicators and components were analyzed. Results. A comparison of statistical data with those provided by the Federal Tax Service made it possible to identify the scale of the shadow economy in Russian regions over the period from 2007 to 2018. An analysis of the data showed that from 2007 to 2009. there was a decrease in the level of the shadow economy, and, since 2009, its growth has been noted in most regions. Conclusion. The presence of unaccounted economic activity in all Russian regions poses a threat not only to the economic security of individual regions but also to the safe and sustainable development of the entire state. Analysis of the state of the shadow economy in Russian regions showed the unevenness of its development in different regions. To conduct an effective policy of countering shadow economic processes, it is important to identify their scale and take regional characteristics into account.

The analysis of theoretical bases of development and functioning of the state policy in the field of information security has allowed to come to a conclusion that in domestic scientific circles the research of the given question and problems of perfection of mechanisms of maintenance of safety in information space was engaged by a considerable quantity of scientists, in particular: S. Gorova, N. Grabar, M Gutsalyuk, A. Turchak, J. Chmyr and others. At the same time, it is substantiated that in the science of public administration, today, there is no unified definition of "state policy in the field of security in the information space", because the disclosure of this category in modern scientific thought is not detailed enough. The opinion is substantiated that the state policy in the field of information space security can be defined as a specific complex phenomenon in society, which includes a large number of components of different directions (economic, foreign policy, military, technological and other). In this concept, the activities of public authorities should be aimed at creating favorable conditions for the implementation of state measures to ensure a high level of security in the information environment of the country. The opinion is proved that the state-legal mechanism of public administration in the field of ensuring the security of the information space of the state acts as a holistic system of public authorities and special institutions that outline the legal field in this area and effectively regulate economic, financial, economic and social relations. between subjects in the field of information space security and information data protection. It is noted that the organizational and legal mechanism of public administration in the field of information security of the state provides an opportunity to coordinate the development of regulatory framework in accordance with modern progress and development of information technology in the world, as well as creating an algorithm for public authorities to implement effective state policy in the field of information security of the state, taking into account the necessary resources and by exercising the function of control over their use.

Image Capturing

The world has been changing rapidly and with surprise we keep watching how the new technologies develop. If fifty years ago to an ordinary user having a video recorder was something inconceivable, now probably anybody could have it in a pocket. Even flying cars, that could a few years back be only dreamed of, now are becoming a reality and it will not take ages until they fill up our space. Along with the modern technologies we notice how it is becoming easy to gather information: with the help of drones we can capture images, record, conduct search; video recording, surveillance cameras mounted on buildings, in cars can capture visual information about everything that is on the way. However, herewith there is a great concern about whether it is possible to tackle threats caused by these technologies and especially threat to people’s privacy. Thus, it could be said that filming devices are the best tool to collect the most accurate information. However, along with the development of image capturing devices and other technologies, people’s concern about their privacy grows. And this could be confirmed by the General Data Protection Regulation  which came into force just recently.  The fact that the necessity of such regulation was noticed by the European Union proves that people’s private information as a part of their right to private life, had been in danger. The same, confirming the novelty and actuality of the topic, is stated in the preamble of the GDPR: “Rapid technological developments and globalisation have brought new challenges for the protection of personal data. The scale of the collection and sharing of personal data has increased significantly. Technology allows both private companies and public authorities to make use of personal data on an unprecedented scale in order to pursue their activities.” Adding to the latter, the GDPR does not apply to the processing of personal data by a natural person in the course of a purely personal or household activity and thus with no connection to a professional or commercial activity, but technologies serve not only private companies and public authorities, but also natural persons in collecting of personal data for various purposes, including illegal ones. On the other hand, the image capturing devices give people immense opportunities (including not only economical, but security and other aspects as well; therefore hereinafter called as “societal security”) and to be able  to enjoy them it is worth working on the adjustment of current legislation in order to find the right balance between the value given by the technologies in-topic (security) and the other value that is so much in-danger nowadays (privacy). The latter forms the research problem. So in this research the answer on how the current legal regulation could be adjusted in order to find that balance, is given. By comparing and indicating the problematic aspects of current national Latvian and Lithuanian regulation on the usage of technologies in-topic and privacy protection, the authors aim to prove that even though the regulation on protection of particular values could differ in different jurisdictions,  the image capturing devices still make a great contribution to societal security therefore their use cannot be denied. In order to adjust their impact on privacy, it is necessary to clearly categorize different subjects of the usage of image capturing devices and suggest legal rules for the prevention of privacy breaches.
