INFORMATION SECURITY IN THE ERA OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Abstract

The article explores the current challenges of information security in the context of digital transformation, which affects all areas of public life—from government administration to education and business. The main types of threats arising during the implementation of digital technologies are analyzed, including attacks on critical infrastructure, data breaches, malicious software, and social engineering. Modern approaches to countering these threats are considered, in particular monitoring of the information environment, and the promotion of users' digital literacy and culture. Special attention is given to the Ukrainian context, particularly the experience of responding to cyberattacks during wartime and the integration of European information security standards. The study concludes with the assertion that an interdisciplinary approach and the development of cyber resilience at all levels of digital interaction are essential.
