Abstract

The continuous change in social relations due to the digital transformation of society, in addition to progress, carries a potential danger to the harmonious development of minors. The digitalization of modern society, the transition of minors to communication and learning using the capabilities of information and tel-ecommunication networks requires effective control to minimize the risks of negative consequences. In this regard, a criminological analysis of the legal regulation of the components of the modern digi-tal environment is presented: social networks, instant messengers, and other means of instant electronic communication. The work aims to explain the degree of completeness and quality of the regulatory framework that ensures the regulation of relations with the use of digital resources and the protection of minors from their negative impact. To achieve this goal, the author's risk-based approach is proposed, which is used in the field of identifying and preventing potential threats from uncontrolled creation and dissemination of information using the means of the modern digital environment. As a result of the use of dialectical, formal-logical, comparative-legal, and other research methods used in criminology, gaps in the legal regulation of the dissemination of information through digital means of communication have been identified, which can pose a threat to the normal development of minors. The need to develop amendments and additions to the current Russian legislation is substantiated based on the riskbased approach proposed by the authors to ensure the security of the modern digital environment for minors.
