The article deals with the basic concepts and tendencies of the digital economy. The current state of the digital economy and prospects for its development in Ukraine are analyzed. It is proposed to consider the digital economy development as an element of the social development strategy. The research methodology includes neo-institutional and systemic approaches, as well as analysis of statistics and data from social studies. The work concerns equally the theoretical and applied aspects of the topic. The paper is based on secondary data that has been collected from the official statistics, the Internet, science articles, interviews, papers, etc. The analysis results indicate a relatively unfavorable situation in Ukraine. The digital economy development entails dramatic changes in social relations. These processes include both risks (the market is being restructured in a new way, leading to challenges related to jobs, skills, security and privacy), as well as prospects (stimulating innovation, increasing governance efficiency, improving service delivery, inclusion and sustainable economic growth, the well-being of citizens, countries and society). The society and the state should be properly prepared for such changes. Therefore, the digital economy development in terms of public administration should be seen as an element of a social development strategy that requires proper scientific and expert substantiation. The concept of digital economy development in Ukraine envisages several measures aimed at addressing digital gap (from digital jobs to digital initiatives in the modern world, conducting digitalization of industry and business, defining basic digital services, preparing educational modernization measures, as well as forecasting digital development in Ukraine until 2020). On January 17, 2018, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine approved the Concept for the Development of the Digital Economy and Society of Ukraine for 2018-2020 and a plan of measures for its implementation. The document emphasizes that the path to the digital economy and digital society of Ukraine lies through the domestic product market, use and consumption of information and communication or digital technologies. The digital economy development is a set of mechanisms, motivation factors, and incentives for the implementation of digital technologies, and, therefore, a branched digital infrastructure for harnessing the state's capabilities, enhancing its competitiveness, and increasing the well-being of citizens. Currently, Ukrainian market of information products and services is at the stage of formation. The market of information products consists of technical and technological components (modern information equipment, powerful computers, advanced computer network and related information processing technologies, which enables to work on the global computer network Internet, search information, customers, goods, hypertext management technology, e-mail); regulatory and legal components (the legal basis for regulating the information market); organizational components (elements of state regulation of interaction between producers and distributors of information products and services). At the same time, the tasks of identifying specific practical legal, regulatory (organizational), economic and financial infrastructural mechanisms for the development of the «digital society» that would facilitate the rapid growth of the digital economy remain unresolved.

Digital technologies, ubiquitous in our daily life, have radically changed the way we work, communicate, and consume in a short period of time. They affect all components of quality of life: well-being, work, health, education, social connections, environmental quality, the ability to participate and govern civil society, and so on. Digital transformation creates both opportunities and serious risks to the well-being of people. Researchers and statistical agencies around the world are facing a major challenge to develop new tools to analyze the impact of digital transformation on the well-being of the population. The risks are very diverse in nature and it is very difficult to identify the key factor. All researchers conclude that secure digital technologies significantly improve the lives of those who have the skills to use them and pose a serious risk of inequality for society, as they introduce a digital divide between those who have the skills to use them and those who do not. In the article, the author examines the risks created by digital technologies for some components of the quality of life (digital component of the quality of life), which are six main components: the digital quality of the population, providing the population with digital benefits, the labor market in the digital economy, the impact of digitalization on the social sphere, state electronic services for the population and the security of information activities. The study was carried out on the basis of the available statistical base and the results of research by scientists from different countries of the world. The risks of the digital economy cannot be ignored when pursuing state social policy. Attention is paid to government regulation aimed at reducing the negative consequences of digitalization through the prism of national, federal projects and other events.

The transformation of the socio-economic sphere based on the widespread use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) has allowed us to form fairly stable trends in the development of the digital economy in many countries of the world. The innovative system of economic relations in developed countries has shown its effectiveness. Digital technologies have an impact on the decision-making about what to produce and what to buy, digital markets have a short formation period, they have fewer entry barriers, they are more dynamic. The digital format of modern life leads to the development of new economic relations and to significant changes in the process of learning, professional activity, leisure activities, allows you to think differently, plan and make decisions. In Russia, in 2017, the program "Digital Economy of the Russian Federation" was approved, according to the strategic goals of which, the use of digital technologies should lead to an increase in the competitiveness and well-being of the country's population. The program provides for improving the level of management based on planning (strategic, tactical, operational), coordination, and monitoring the practical implementation of the goals set. Funding for the program is provided at the level of 100 billion rubles per year, the total budget for 2018-2024 is 1634.9 billion rubles. The article considers the target program "Digital Economy of the Russian Federation", determines the possibility of its practical implementation in the context of digital globalization and identifies the factors that hinder its development: the imperfection of the regulatory framework; low volume of digital technologies used in enterprises, insufficient level for their financing; insufficient level of digital competencies, technologies and readiness for technological breakthrough; "digital inequality" among the population of the country; insufficient targeted state funding of innovative digital companies and high cybercrime.

The paper shows that the main limit to the growth of "digitalization" in the XXI century may be not so much the limits of technology development, but rather the difficulties with staffing such a knowledge-intensive process as digital development. This problem is mainly associated with a decrease in the rate of growth of the World's population, which is determined by other social, economic, and factors. The personnel problem of the development of the digital economy is based on the need to maintain the number of researchers and the intensity of solving the problems of economic and social development through the creation and implementation of digital technologies. Solving this problem in the coming decades may face a chronic shortage of specialists to implement the most ambitious plans.

Legal priorities are considered in the framework of the implementation of economic policy of modern Russia, due to the fact that this category has not only legal, but also political significance and is simultaneously aimed at political and legal results. We substantiate the position that legal priorities are especially significant in state policy and, above all, in economic policy, as they establish the development directions of the Russian economy and, above all, in the framework of innovation. The transition of Russia to digital technologies determines the development and formulation of legal priorities, which causes the intensification of statutory conditions creation to ensure this transition. We highlight the disadvantages in the legal support of the digital economy in Russia, namely: the minimum requirements for the digitalization process were not established, additional mechanisms that stimulate the introduction of digital technologies by market participants were not created, etc. We analyze the problem of the interdependence of states from each other in the context of the development of globalization and digital economy, which actualizes the value of state sovereignty. We emphasize that worldview change affects the understanding of state sovereignty and attitude towards it, but at the same time state sovereignty has absolute advantages and should not be limited by anyone. Modernization of the understanding of state sovereignty and attitude towards it actualizes the analysis of the state’s national interests, including national economic security, the well-being of population, the favorable dynamics of trade with specific partners, and the formation of a legal environment for entrepreneurship.

Today feature of economic processes in Ukraine is the transition from “traditional” to the digital economy with the latest technology. The study of the current state of the digital economy indicates that most Ukrainian companies don’t have a clear vision of the process and quality examples of the transition to the use of digital technologies yet. This is significantly impedes the fulfillment of key priorities and directions for the implementation of state policy in the digital economy in Ukraine. Therefore, businesses need to develop strategies based digital transformation minimization of risks is not possible without ensuring digital security, based on functional components that determine the effectiveness and efficiency of management mechanism. The purpose of the article is to formulate the author’s approach to determining the digital security of the enterprise and priority areas of its implementation. The article defines the strategic approach of the features of digital transformation and the problematic issues that hinder the revision of the business strategy of most Ukrainian enterprises. A methodological approach to the definition of “digital enterprise security” is proposed – it is the security of the functional components of the enterprise in the course of economic activity in the conditions of digitalization and competition; measures and methods aimed at minimizing the external and internal risks of e-business, as well as ensuring the security of functional components. The main purpose of the enterprise digital security is to ensure the stable functioning of the business with further development in the future, which is based on the structure of its functional components. The mechanism for implementation of digital security of the enterprise is defined, which includes: regulatory legislation, basic principles, subjects of guarantee and mechanism of security, as well as objects. A mechanism for digital security has been created, which will allow to gradually develop effective management decisions in the enterprise development strategy. The main reasons hampering the process of digital transformation of Ukraine’s economy are: the undeveloped state regulatory framework for regulating the process of building the digital economy, uncertainty about the nature of interaction of participants in this process, as well as issues of development of digital technologies in order to increase the level of competitiveness, entrepreneurship and innovation. In view of the above, we consider it expedient to take the following measures in the conditions of digital transformation: to legally define the concept of “digital security of an enterprise”, its functional components, objects and entities involved in the mechanism of strategy implementation; to help encourage businesses to transition to new business models through collaborations in digital security. Keywords digital transformation, digital security of enterprise, components of enterprise digital security, mechanism for implementation of digital security of the enterprise.
