CYBER SECURITY

Cybersecurity is a fast-growing field of IT concerned with reducing organizations' risk of hacks or data breaches. According to research from the Enterprise Strategy Group, 46% of organizations say that they have a "problematic shortage" of cybersecurity skills in 2016, up from 28% in 2015. Commercial, government, and non-governmental organizations all employ cybersecurity professionals. The fastest increases in demand for cybersecurity workers are in industries managing increasing volumes of consumer data such as finance, health care, and retail. However, the use of the term "cybersecurity" is more prevalent in government job descriptions. And prevention of cyber security is said here. Today, due to the modern lifestyle, people have joined technology life and use more technology for shopping and financial transactions in their cyberspace. At the same time, the safeguarding of knowledge has become increasingly difficult. In addition, the heavy use and growth of social media, online crime, or a cybercrime has increased. In the present world information security plays an important role. Whenever we think of cyber security, we think of 'cybercrimes,' which expand tremendously every day. Different governments and businesses take various steps to avoid this form of cybercrime. In addition to numerous cyber protection initiatives, many people are also very worried about it. This paper focuses primarily on cyber security concerns related to the new technology. It also concentrates on the new technologies for cyber security, ethics, and developments that impact cyber security. KEYWORDS: Cyber-security, cyber-crime, hacking, android apps.

Separate Issues of the Definition of the IT-sphere employee as a subject of labor law

Problem setting. In the conditions of digital transformation of society, the IT sphere counts a significant number of specialists. With the beginning of full-scale aggression against Ukraine, the IT industry is one of the few that can function. Nowadays, the definition of the term «IT employee» still does not exist either in legislation or in the doctrine of labor law. Therefore, distinguishing the features of the term «IT employee» is one of the urgent problems of labor law. Analysis of recent researches and publications. In recent years, the following scholars of labor law have, to one degree or another devoted themselves to researching the concept of an IT employee: L. P. Amelicheva, S. Ya. Vavzhenchuk, V. V. Zhernakov, M. I. Inshin, L. V. Kotova, S. M. Prilypko, O. I. Protsevskyi, O. G. Sereda, A. M. Slyusar, V. L. Kostyuk, G. I. Chanysheva, V. I. Shcherbina, O. M. Yaroshenko, and others. Despite the development of a general question, there was no definition of the term «IT employee» in labor law, which determines the relevance of the choice of topic. Тarget of the research is to identify the main features of the concept of «IT employee» and to define it. In order to realize the specified goal, the following tasks were set: to investigate the concept of «IT sphere», to analyze the features of such terms as «subject of law», «subject of labor law», «employee», to distinguish the concept of «employee of the IT sphere» from the concept of «gig specialist». Article’s main body. This was achieved due to the method of analysis, which made it possible to identify the characteristics of an employee in the IT field, which are typical and atypical for other employees, subjects of labor law and subjects of law; the method of generalization, which allowed to define the concept of «IT worker» after researching the general and special features of the specified term; a comparative legal method that made it possible to compare and analyze a gig specialist and an IT employee. We have found that: (a) the general characteristics of an IT worker include the characteristics inherent in the concepts of «employee», «subject of labor law», «subject of law»; (b) a special feature of IT workers is the performance of a job function in the field of data collection, processing and transmission to obtain information of new quality and its use on the basis of computing and information technology; (c) legal regulation of IT workers and gig specialists is demarcated; (d) definition of the term «IT employee» is provided. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Thus, an IT employee is a individual person who has reached the legal age and has entered into an employment contract with an employer to perform a job function in the field of data collection, processing and transmission to obtain new quality information and use it on the basis of computing and information technology.

Neurocomputerization as a Challenge of the Digital Economy

Modern entrepreneurship and business cannot exist, develop, and make profits without applying digital technologies. Neurocomputerization of the production process, for example, helps to solve a wide range of issues related to sales, management, and expansion. This proves beneficial not only for the companies themselves, but also for the state economy as a whole, since this process retransmits and transforms the basic and obsolete methods and means of managing and producing tangible and intangible assets into new projects and architectures. Fintech and internet companies have taken over the banking industry for good. Currently, in order to compete in the banking services market, banks must invest time and resources in multi-channeling; actively develop digital products and technologies; conduct marketing research on customer behavior; modernize websites and applications; improve and stabilize credit and financial scoring, etc. Today, many traditional banks believe that participating in the information race for the consumer in the IT field is becoming a matter of “life and death” for their business, because the Internet giants are getting better at processing huge databases, thus ensuring more accurate and faster targeting. The modern banking industry is constantly developing neural network technologies and optimizing huge layers of information and digital activities of all its structures. Hence, there is a system of pluses and minuses for the financial and credit sphere. A major advantage of the digital web transformation of conventional banking methods and approaches is that the consumer is connected with the client base and attached to the financial product. This trend is aimed at ensuring overall development of IT tools.

Управління ризиками ІТ-проєктів: сутність та особливості застосування підходів PMBoK і AGILE

Recently, the relevance of risk management of IT projects has increased significantly, which is associated with their rapid development and a high level of uncertainty in the external environment. The purpose of the study is to determine the features of risk management of IT projects on the basis of modern theory and practice of project management. The paper analyzes the essence of the concept of «IT project», as well as identifies its features, including: non-standard life cycle; mobility and ambiguity of some areas in the IT field; high level of uniqueness of the project; dependence on other IT projects and technologies; low level of project expertise due to the uniqueness of the technologies on which the project is based; high level of project complexity and uncertainty. The essence of the concept of «IT project risk» is also defined, the main types of risks are characterized. The features of using the PMBoK (Project Management Body of Knowledge) methodology in project risk management are analyzed. A characterization of the stages of risk management in IT projects based on the PMBoK approach is provided, including: risk planning; risk identification; qualitative and quantitative risk assessment; planning a risk response strategy; monitoring and control of risks. It is determined that risk management of IT projects using the PMBoK approach has significant shortcomings if used in conditions of a high level of uncertainty and novelty of the project. The article also provides a characterization of flexible risk management of an IT project based on the Agile methodology, which in turn is based on an iterative approach, continuous risk assessment and the development of measures for their adaptation. A comparative characterization of the approaches of PMBoK and Agile to risk management of IT projects is provided: their strengths, weaknesses, and areas of application are identified. It is noted that the choice between PMBoK and Agile approaches should be based on the specific needs of the project and the organizational context. PMBoK will be appropriate for large, long-term projects, as well as in situations where predictability, adherence to the plan are crucial, while Agile is best suited for innovative projects that are implemented in an uncertain or dynamic environment and require flexibility, quick adaptation, and customer focus. A significant number of project managers in the IT field prefer a hybrid approach that combines the strengths of both methodologies.

The authors propose to use the IT-Vertical Project as an effective means of teaching schoolchildren computer science and technology, the implementation of which will increase motivation and promote self-realization of schoolchildren. As part of developing schoolchildren's IT competencies, the future personnel potential in the IT field, also CTF competitions can play the role of an effective learning tool.

Using digital technologies for the development of children with autism

The article is devoted to the directions of using digital technologies for the development of children with autism. The importance of digital technologies in the education and development of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) has been studied. Five areas of technology in which software is developed for children with ASD are analyzed, such as: mobile technology, robotics, virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality. It was determined that the use of certain technologies should be conditioned by the requirements that different categories of autistic children may have. Examples of five areas of application of digital technology tools aimed at intervention, correction or training are offered. The proposed tools of digital technologies differ in that they do not simply correct or develop certain skills in children with ASD, but rely on their existing personal characteristics, which will ensure the effective use of these technologies. The analysis of scientific literature made it possible to conclude that a psychological and pedagogical feature of teaching children with autism is the need to take into account their specific needs and abilities of students. The main features are the need to develop social and communication skills, among which the development of social interaction skills with peers is very important. At the level of theoretical generalization, it was determined that the use of ICT for teaching children with autism allows you to use current developments in the field of IT and improve the processes of socialization of a child with special needs, his social skills and, in particular, the skills of interacting with peers.It was determined that it is appropriate to use innovative methods that use such learning technologies as computer technologies designed for PCs, mobile and communication devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.) with appropriate software applications, robots, augmented, virtual or mixed reality technologies and others that will help children with autism learn and develop social interaction skills.

Determinants of Knowledge Transfer for Information Technology Project Managers: A Systematic Literature Review

Aim/Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the key determinants hindering Knowledge Transfer (KT) practices for Information Technology Project Managers (ITPMs) Background: The failure rate of IT projects remains unacceptably high worldwide, and KT between project managers and team members has been recognized as a significant issue affecting project success. Therefore, this study tries to identify the determinants of KT within the context of IT projects for ITPMs. Methodology: A systematic review of the literature (SLR) was employed in the investigation. The SLR found 28 primary studies on KT for ITPMs that were published in Scopus and Web of Science databases between 2010 and 2023. Contribution: Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) was used to build a theoretical framework where the determinants were categorized into Personal factors, Environmental (Project organizational) factors, and other factors, such as Technological factors influencing ITPMs (Behavioral factors), to implement in KT practices. Findings: The review identified 11 key determinants categorized into three broad categories: Personal factors (i.e., motivation, absorptive capability, trust, time urgency), Project Organizational factors (i.e., team structure, leadership style, reward system, organizational culture, communication), and Technological factors (i.e., project task collaboration tool and IT infrastructure and support) that influence implementing KT for ITPMs Recommendations for Practitioners: The proposed framework in this paper can be used by project managers as a guide to adopt KT practices within their project organization. Recommendation for Researchers: The review showed that some determinants, such as Technological factors, have not been adequately explored in the existing KT model in the IT projects context and can be integrated with other relevant theories to understand how a project manager’s knowledge can be transferred and retained in the organization using technology in future research. Impact on Society: This study emphasizes the role of individual actions and project organizational and technological matters in shaping the efficacy of KT within project organizations. It offers insight that could steer business owners or executives within project organizations to closely observe the behavior of project managers, thereby securing successful project outcomes. Future Research: The determinant list provided in this paper is acquired from extensive SLR and, therefore, further research should aim to expand and deepen the investigation by validating these determinants from experts in the field of IT and project management. Future studies can also add other external technological determinants to provide a more comprehensive KT implementation framework. Similarly, this research does not include determinants identified directly from the industry, as it relies solely on determinants found in the existing literature. Although a comprehensive attempt has been made to encompass all relevant papers, there remains a potential for overlooking some research in this process.

The article is devoted to the scientific understanding of the peculiarities of the development of the Middle East (MENA countries) in the global context, which is accompanied by the development of new theoretical approaches and the study of the possibilities of their application to regional realities. Identification of effective directions of economic modernization in the countries - exporters of hydrocarbon raw materials, search for new examples of the economic model of the specified countries, search for replacement of petrodollars with other sources of income. Within the framework of this study, the indicated parameters will be considered through the prism of the problems of inter-Arab cooperation and the interaction of the Arab world with external actors. In this work uses methods of structural, systemic and statistical analysis. At the forefront of the movement towards a digital society are the Gulf monarchies, where internet penetration has doubled over the past decade and now stands at 95% and above, ahead of the leaders of the Global North on this parameter, with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) becoming the first and so far the only country in the world with 100% Internet users. The digital economy is becoming as a new trend in the UAE economy. The some countries in the Middle Eastern region have already developed clear plans for digital transformations in the health care system. In the conditions of complex Middle Eastern geopolitics, the UAE is trying to build a new economic model based on knowledge and innovation. For this, three conditions are necessary: the presence of significant financial resources, which are investment capital; availability of a large number of qualified labor force, especially in the field of IT; good business climate and regulatory conditions for the creation of new technology companies. Thanks to the digitization of the economy, the standard of living of a person improves, but there is also a negative moment as a result of transformational changes, as the thesis and antithesis of any social phenomenon - and this is cyber security and cyber attacks. Therefore, the Arab world in general is picking up pace in the field of creating cyber protection, showing similarities with global development trends, but at the same time with a variety of strategies and practices for promoting a safe digital environment.
