The article displayed the results of a legal and sociological study of some gender-related problems in the security sector of theMinistry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. A survey of employees of the National Police of Ukraine, the National Guard and the State BorderGuard Service revealed the most relevant phenomena of gender inequality and intolerance in the relationship between women andmen within the scope of their official duties and in everyday life. The study proved the absence of a critical state of gender-related problemsin the security sector of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, not only in the everyday life of employees, but also at theplace of execution of official duties. In particular, almost all of the interviewed employees, women and men, support the opinion aboutequal opportunities in professional development, and more than half of the male law enforcement officers believe that women and menwith the same qualifications will cope with their official duties equally well. Also, the majority of respondents feel quite comfortableworking with female colleagues not only at the same level of subordination, but also under the guidance of female colleagues. At thesame time, 40 % of the women surveyed stated that they and their colleagues face certain forms of discrimination within the securitysector. The overwhelming majority of both men and women counteract sexual harassment among workers in the sector, since half ofthe women surveyed reported their experience of sexual harassment or actions of a sexual nature in public places. That’s why, 80.5 %of men and 94.3 % of women among the polled law enforcement officers support the need to adopt a law that would recognize sexualmisconduct or sexual harassment in public places as a crime. In the families of security sector employees, one in five women experiencedphysical violence by a partner, and 10.3 % of men admitted to having committed it. The role of the experience of primary socializationof security sector employees in childhood in the formation of inadequate gender stereotypes is stated. The necessity of implementationof legal, organizational, personnel, psychological and pedagogical measures for the prevention of gender problems in theactivities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine is substantiated on the basis of an adequate perception of human rights, mutualrespect and tolerance.

The relevance of the article is due to the European integration aspirations of Ukraine and the prospects of joining its security forces, including the National Guard of Ukraine, to the NATO. So, the formation of language competence in modern conditions is an integral part of the officer’s professional development and training. Theoretical analysis of scientific sources on the language competence development in servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and law enforcement officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine revealed that this problem has not been studied and needs additional research. The essence of the language competence in the NGU officer is revealed as a personal integrative formation, which allows the specialist (an officer) effectively to communicate in foreign language, to achieve positive results in his professional activity. It is studied that the requirements of the NATO STANAG-6001, as well as various aspects of the NGU's professional activity should be taken into account when developing the language competence in NGU officers.

The problems of changing the position of the Ministry of Internal Affairs after the events of February–March 1917 in the Tambov Governorate are investigated. We study the state policy, the attitude of local authorities and the public to representatives of this socio-professional group, individual features of the adaptation of its representatives to new socio-political conditions. The relevance of the research is due to both significant gaps in the historiography of the issue, especially at the regional level of the study of the problem, and a certain consonance with the modern problems of Russian law enforcement agencies in the context of transformations. It is concluded that representatives of the broad popular strata and the soldier masses treated former em-ployees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs extremely negatively, which was especially pronounced in the period that followed the revolutionary events of February 1917. However, the leadership of both the governorate as a whole and in individual counties pursued an ambivalent policy towards representatives of this social and professional group. On the one hand, the tasks were set for the maximum removal of former law enforcement officers from participation in public and political life, and on the other, their professional skills were in demand in the newly created militia bodies.

This article studies the importance of professional communication training for employees of internal affairs in the educational organization of the Ministry of internal affairs agencies of Russia. The research justified the necessity of developing communicative qualities, acquiring professional knowledge and communication skills of a law enforcement officer by the fact that law enforcement officers are the specialists of the «man-man» professional system. Professional communication of employees of internal affairs has its own characteristics, which are primarily related to interaction with different categories of citizens, including those citizens who violate the law and public order. It is important for the employee to be able to interact with citizens at a high professional level, and for this it is necessary to possess mental and pedagogical technologies. Training of an internal affairs officer in psychological and pedagogical technologies takes place in educational organization of the Ministry of internal affairs of Russia. However, in nowadays, due to the coronavirus educational organizations teach online and these circumstances have led to a negative tendency associated with the formation of personal qualities in employees that do not contribute to effective professional communication. This negative orientation is confirmed by the research conducted by the authors focused on the study of communicative qualities of employees of internal affairs agencies. The research involved employees studying in an educational organization of the Ministry of internal affairs of Russia. The research found an increasing negative tendency of development of such negative qualities as low self-esteem, uncertainty, social and communicative passivity of employees of internal affairs agencies. In conclusion the authors provided their views and perspectives on how to address those emerging issues.

Introduction: according to the official statistics, the number of acts involving information technology is increasing every year in Russia. In particular, currently, the types of crimes in the field of information technology are changing qualitatively and continue to evolve continuously, becoming highly organized and more sophisticated. Through the use of information technologies in Russia, such crimes as hacking, illegal data acquisition (information espionage), theft of other people’s property from payment (settlement) cards and accounts of citizens, trafficking of drugs, arms, human beings are committed; the extremist literature is distributed, new members of terrorist groups are recruited; pornography, including children, is spread, illegal gambling and online games are conducted; fraud through the use of cellular and IP-telephony services, theft of personal data in large amount and selling them, and other crimes are committed using information technologies. The current type of computer fraud – phishing – is gaining momentum. Its essence is that cybercriminals seek to get hold of the data of ordinary people through computer technology, and using this data, get hold of their funds, including financial ones. It seems that such actions can neither contribute to the development of Russian society, nor to the development of civilized relations in society, nor to the development of information networks themselves. After all, any technology can be used for both constructive and non-constructive technologies. And when these goals are destructive, the law enforcement agencies, in our opinion, should have an effective level of training to deal with such violations. We believe that it is not enough to calculate, detect, and establish. We still need to be able to bring the culprit to criminal responsibility. In this regard, the most important thing is to ensure that anonymity not only creates the illusion of impunity, but also that the law enforcement agencies have a sufficient legal, organizational and, first of all, personnel basis to expose the criminal. In order to successfully thwart crimes in the field of information technology, the availability of implementation of the adopted standards and the key to the implementation of the state policy in the field of information security is the training and education of appropriate personnel who would provide “breakthrough” results in this area. The purpose of the research is to study the issues of improving the training of the law enforcement officers in countering crimes committed through the use of information technologies. Methods: the research uses a comparative analysis and generalization of the examples of the educational methods used in the educational organizations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the field of information security. The authors study, in particular, the general theoretical and practical orientation of the educational process in this area, synthesizing the results obtained, whose purpose is to improve the training of highly qualified specialists for the Internal Affairs bodies capable of countering crimes in the field of information technologies. Results: the authors formulate the main directions for improving the training of the law enforcement officers to counter crimes committed using information technologies, in particular, on the example of the educational organizations used in the educational process of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Thus, one of the measures proposed by the authors in this direction is the opening of a new specialty – cyber-investigator or cyber-criminalist. The entry of developed countries into the sixth technological order and the further active digitalization of the world economy predict a huge scale and replication of crimes using information technologies. This circumstance actualizes the need to popularize the profession of a cyber-investigator – a specialist with an interdisciplinary education, i.e. experience in the investigative agencies will have to be combined with the skills of a criminalist and a specialist in the field of information protection.

The issue of regulatory and legal support for the use of coercion by authorized entities, as well as the grounds for the application of coercive measures by such bodies have been studied. According to the results of the study, it is concluded that the legal regulation of law enforcement agencies to apply coercive measures is carried out by a certain system of legislation, consisting of a large number of regulations that differ from each other in many ways and is a hierarchical system based primarily on the Constitution of Ukraine. At the same time, the legal grounds for the use of coercion by law enforcement officers are enshrined in the hypotheses of the norms of only certain regulations - the Laws of Ukraine "On the National Police", "On the National Guard", "On Pre-trial Detention", "On the Military Law Enforcement Service in Armed Forces of Ukraine ”as well as the Criminal Executive Code of Ukraine. The rest of the laws, although giving law enforcement officers the right to apply force, contain blanket rules that refer to the above three regulations to clarify the legal basis for their application, mainly to the Law on the National Police. It is also determined that the limits of harm caused by a law enforcement officer during the appli-cation of coercive measures must be commensurate with two factors: first, with the potential for danger to law enforcement interests (legal basis), and secondly, with the situation in which turned out to be the subject of coercion during the elimination of the specified non-security (factual basis). These two factors, combined, are nothing more than a complex basis of harm to the offender. And the actions of law enforcement officers will only be morally justified and permitted by law if the damage they caused is commensurate with both factors of the cause that caused it, ie the reason for the damage. The article expresses the opinion that the researched issues reflect the opposition of public and private interest, which is solved using the universal principle of proportionality. It is in this way that the legal regulation is carried out, where the legislator approaches the infliction of harm as a result of the use of force in a differentiated manner.

The paper investigates a novel issue related to the cooperation between special forces units of the penal system and other (special) similar units, namely, the police and the National Guard (including the Special Purpose Mobile Unit and the Special Rapid Response Unit). We note that earlier these units were part of the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The paper presents the results of a study of organizational and legal interaction of the special forces of the penal system with other bodies in the field of law enforcement. We argue that the cooperation between these units has the greatest potential in conducting special operations to prevent emergencies related to hostage-taking, mass riots, and escapes of convicts. We highlight major organizational criteria for interaction between the divisions under consideration. We put forward our own definition of the essence of organizing the interaction between special forces units of the penal system and special units of other agencies in emergency situations taking place in correctional institutions. We describe characteristic features of this interaction. The integration of these features allowed us to formulate a scientific definition of the interaction under consideration in a broad sense. The article analyzes specific features of cooperation between special forces units of the penal system and other bodies; these features involve the establishment of interpersonal contacts between the heads of these units. We emphasize the scientific and organizational principles of interaction, such as balance, mobility, and preparedness. We propose tactical interaction, which consists of an action plan, preliminary training, management decisions and practical actions of the personnel. The paper also presents the results of an empirical study on the integration of special forces units. Key words: interaction; organization and tactics; institutions and bodies of FSIN Russia; law enforcement; special forces of the penal system; other special bodies.
