The article demonstrates the impact of digitalization security on implementation of modernengineering technologies, substantiates their connections with provision of the strategic economic security of anenterprise, presents enhanced methods of assessing the current economic-information security of an enterprise’sinterests. The developed methods of digitalization security assessment have been tested at machine buildingenterprises of Ukraine. The security level has proved to be medium or low at most enterprises under study. Thework substantiates that absence of the systematic personnel policy aimed at personnel’s acquiring competences4.0, deficit of financing technologies 4.0 implementation, a low level of IT capital make it impossible to ensurea high level of strategic economic security at Ukraine’s machine building enterprises.

Over the past decade, there has been an increase in the volume of cybercrime in various spheres of life at the level of the state, economic agents, and individuals. Therefore, the issues of studying the processes of forming information security and identifying the impact on its effectiveness are becoming topical. The aim of this study is to prove the hypothesis that the behaviour of the population associated with the use of personal security measures and the formation of the corresponding consequences of incidents occurs under the influence of the level of economic development of the country. This was done using k-means cluster analysis via the Deductor Academic analytical platform and based on data from a survey conducted among respondents from EU countries. Analysis of the responses showed that there is a growing trend in the use of online banking and e-commerce services; there is an increase in the number of respondents who have become victims of cybercrimes, especially social engineering; the trend towards the use of reliable personal security equipment is declining. The results of the cluster analysis, for which data on the number of respondents who are victims of cybercrimes and the number of respondents using various personal security tools were used, made it possible to form 7 clusters of countries. Analysis of GDP per capita for the obtained clusters and visualization of the map of countries allowed us to confirm the hypothesis, but it was also determined that the dependence of the use of personal security measures and the consequences of cybercrimes is also influenced by the mental characteristics of countries formed due to the close territorial location of neighboring countries. The results obtained will be of practical importance for the development of the concept of information security and economic development of the state. They can be used to determine which sets of protection are appropriate for the income level of the population. Priority areas for further research are to determine the influence of other factors on the formation of the country's information security and the formation of a barycentric model of their measurements to ensure sustainable economic development of the state.

The article outlines the concept of maintaining the required security level of the information system in the organization (SIO) through appropriate control of the security configurations of the security system. The security system (SS) model was proposed and its basic elements characterized to maintain the current security level of the information resources. The desired current security feature of the SIO shall be obtained by generating appropriate security technical and organizational configurations from the set of permissible solutions. The proposed concept, which takes into account the impact of not only basic security elements of the information resources (e.g. types of resources, security attributes, risks, vulnerability), but also changes in the working conditions of the information system and security system as well as the entire security and quality management environment of the organization, constitutes own proposal of the authors.

With the advent of the information age, information security has become an urgent problem to be solved. Various application and platforms have not only brought convenience to people, but also brought hidden dangers - information security risks. This paper uses some of the machine learning technology - fuzzy computing and gray relation analysis (GRA), to analyze data of the three major video platforms of China, and takes the information security level as a new criterion to conduct the evaluation of their performance. An assessment model is constructed based on machine learning technology, namely the combination of fuzzy computing and GRA and analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Conclusions can be drawn as follows. First, consumers’ perception of video platform information security level is constantly being strengthened. Second, information security risks are affecting consumers' choice decisions about video platforms, and the weights will continue to increase. Third, video platforms are paying more attention to information security construction.

Purpose of the research. The main purpose of the article is to improve methodological support for the assessment of the financial security of the state, taking into account the impact of budgetary policy. Methodology. During the study the following methods were applied: comparative analysis, integral estimation, normalization of indicators, component analysis, method of principal components, etc. Results. In the course of comparing the existing methodological support for the financial security assessment, it is justified, notwithstanding the existing shortcomings, the expediency of applying in the analytical work the Methodological recommendations for the calculation of the economic security level of Ukraine of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine (2013) and the necessary calculations of the level of financial security of Ukraine for 2009-2018. Additional financial security indicators are proposed, taking into account the priority of its budget component, in particular, the share of revenues from the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) in the state budget revenues (for banking security), the ratio of the pension contributions of non-state pension funds to the own income of the Pension Fund of Ukraine (PFU) market), government revenue as a percentage of consolidated budget expenditures and the share of public servicing and debt repayment expenditures in consolidated budget expenditures (for debt security), expenditures and for servicing and repayment of public debt as % of gross domestic product (GDP) (for fiscal security); consolidated budget revenues in USD US (for currency security), consumer loans to households, % of household income, and lending to consolidated budget expenditures (for monetary security). On the basis of regression analysis, where sub-indices of functional constituents are taken by factor signs, and the integral indicator of financial security is obtained as a result sign, the reliability of the calculations is confirmed. Practical meaning. The calculated sub-indices of the functional components of the financial security of Ukraine and the integrated indicator for 2009-2018 can be used in the development of plans, forecasts, strategies for socio-economic development of Ukraine. Prospects for further research of the author are to study the impact of budgetary policy on the state of financial security of Ukraine.

Leaning on the analysis of the provisions of economic science, which article assesses interrelation between the links of financial system of the country on the one hand, and the impact of the level of financial soundness of businesses and households upon financial security of public law entities on the other; as well as dependence of satisfaction of needs of the individual in public goods on the fullness of centralized monetary funds. Such dependence requires peculiar approach towards determination of financial self-sufficiency of micro-and macroeconomic agents; however, the majority of elaborations focus solely on the public finance, which become the reason for emergence of borderline state of regional economy upon the criterion of its protection from threats – conditionally secure or pseudo secure. In this regard, the goal of this article lies in development of the system of financial-economic indicators and their threshold values; its implementation is aimed at identification of negative trend – indicators of destructive processes in the national economy. The following methods were applied in the course of this research: general scientific – analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction for revealing the peculiarities of ensuring economic security of public law entities in the financial sector; specific scientific – statistical analysis for assessing financial-economic parameters of development of the territory; methods of qualitative assessment of the systems for differentiating the regions upon the criterion of security from financial threats. Considering mutual impact of public and private finance, the author develops the system of financial-economic indicators, the positive dynamics of which testifies to consolidation of financial self-sufficiency of economy of the territory; while negative dynamics in the medium and long-term period testifies to destabilization of certain vital processes of macro - and micro-subjects. Its peculiarity consists in combination of basic and additional coefficients that reflect financial situation of economic agents of various level and determination of their “thresholds”. Implementation of the author's approach in assessment of functionality of financial system of the country is aimed at identification of occurrence causes of borderline dangerous economic states of the territories.
