Abstract

Objective: Global information and technological changes have opened up new opportunities for information and public communication processes. The purpose of the study is to analyze the level of competence of future specialists in economics and finances in the field of information security and develop recommendations for its improvement.
 Methods: The level of information security competencies of future specialists in economics and finance has been determined, characterized by the degree of awareness of the importance of readiness to work in corporate information security systems based on an empirical study using a survey of "Finance, banking, and insurance", "Accounting and taxation", and "Economics" students (94 people total) and a subsequent pedagogical experiment with their participation.
 Results: Authors of the articles have described the main methods and directions of forming the ability of a future specialist in economics and finance to work responsibly in corporate institutions, which are associated, first of all, with the introduction of a special course "Security of financial and economic information in information systems".
 Conclusion: The lack of readiness among economics and finance specialists to work in corporate information security systems may hinder the achievement of sustainable development. To address this issue, it is important to prepare future specialists in economics and finance for professional activity in the conditions of a corporate information security system. It is possible to prevent the development of negative phenomena in the field of information security with the help of the purposeful formation of appropriate competencies in specialists in economics and finance.
