Transformation of Information Security Systems of Enterprises in the Context of Digitization of the National Economy

Abstract

Goal: The main goal of this article is the assessment of transformation of existing information security systems of large enterprises in the context of ongoing digitization processes of national economy. The achievement of this goal primarily sets a mission of the assessment of the situation in the industry and the analysis of the level of digitization of large industrial enterprises. Countrywide transition to digital economy proclaimed by the nation’s leadership generated a need for development and transformation of existing systems for the provision of the necessary level of economic and information security. Under the circumstances, our task is to develop a new model of the ecosystem of the digital national economy, which will contribute to building up partnership in the processes of exploitation of information resources between the organizations. The system analysis was performed for this purpose; this analysis took into account the influence of challenges and threats to the level of information and economic security of an industrial enterprise for further development of new tools and mechanisms for neutralizing and preventing them. Methodology: The research is conducted with the use of the methods of graphic representation of information, statistical data analysis, financial analysis, trend analysis, benchmarking, analogy and systematization method. Results: In accordance with the processes of digitization of branches of industrial sector of national economy, relevant directions of further development and transformation of economic security systems were suggested, which would provide fail-safety and protection of information of online platforms. In order to develop suggested directions, system analysis of dynamics of industrial sector development was performed, the results of development of the SISI system under the auspices of the Ministry for Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation were appraised, the target indicators of the Roadmap “Tekhnet” were considered. Recommendations: directions for the development and establishment of information platform of industry of the Russian Federation considered in this article revealed many security issues of online systems associated with its implementation. First of all, these are information issues which need to be resolved in the short term. Today, the issues of improvement of information security come to the fore due to cyber attacks on information systems of not only financial structures, but also government agencies, and industrial manufacturing complexes, which have recently become more frequent. Therefore, directions for the development of security systems suggested in this article can be used as recommended practices subsequent optimization of remote production processes.
