ASSESSING THE SKILLS OF THE POPULATION OF THE REPUBLIC OF BELARUS IN THE FIELD OF INFORMATION SECURITY IN THE CONTEXT OF TRANSITION TO E-ECONOMY
Abstract
An important factor influencing the effective transition to an information society is the access of the population to information and communication technologies, both from a technical point of view (for example, the possibility of accessing the Internet from home, the development of new generation communication networks — LTE, 4G, 5G) as well as from the knowledge point of view. It is necessary to achieve a certain level of knowledge and skills in the field of ICT, i.e. it is necessary to understand how exactly the existing technical capabilities can be used. As cyberspace captures more and more in our lives, the role of knowledge and skills in the field of information security (IS) also increases. The article highlights the results of a study conducted at the Department of Management at the Belarusian State University of Informatics and Radioelectronics, which tasks included assessing the knowledge and skills of the population of the Republic of Belarus in the field of ICT, in particular, in the field of information security.
