Information Security Problems Arising in Society With the Formation of the Modern Information Society

The article discusses the problems of information security arising in society with the formation of a modern information society. Thus, experience shows that the information environment, information resources and information technologies formed in countries that have entered the information society determine both the level and dynamics of socio-economic, scientific-technical and cultural development. If we look at history, we will see that the geopolitical processes taking place in the world over the past 30-40 years, their management, regulation of international relations, as well as the solution of military-geostrategic, geographical-territorial and socio-economic problems are closely related to the activities of each state in the information field.

The relevance of research on the information society is associated with the need for theoretical understanding of the processes arising under the influence of information and communication technologies and their effective political management. Against the background of the emergence of an information society, global changes are taking place that change the entire social structure and affect political, economic, cultural and social processes. The socio-economic structure of society is changing radically.

The informatization of society is a multifaceted process in which technical, technological, social, economic, political and cultural components are organically interconnected, qualitatively changing the entire structure of the social organism. The formation of an information society reflects, along with radical changes in socio-economic and political relations, changes in culture, spiritual life and everyday life. Summarizing the above, we can say that informatization, or the formation of an information society, is not only a technical and technological, but also a socio-technological and intellectual-humanitarian transformation of the entire system of social relations.

The article considers it appropriate to organize effective teaching of information technology and information security specialties in the country's education system in order to prevent users from becoming victims and minimize risks, strengthen state support for the preparation of qualified personnel who meet modern requirements, create specialized physical laboratories in higher education institutions in the areas of information security and cybersecurity, and similar virtual laboratories in higher education institutions and organizations with limited financial resources, and widely carry out practical work of a scientific and research nature in these laboratories, limit the use of social networks by minors as much as possible, and if this is not possible, teach them the rules for safe use, etc.
