Statistical Indicators of Cybersecurity Development in the Context of Digital Transformation of Economy and Society

Abstract

Introduction. The scale and destructive consequences of the unlawful impact on cyberspace is a key problem of modern geopolitics, and cyber reliability is recognized as one of the most important security priorities by the subjects of international relations.Problem Statement. Monitoring of cyber incidents and anomalies in information and communication systems and prompt response to risks determined by cyber threats require the development of a system of indicators and criteria for cybersecurity assessment.Purpose. Summarize the international experience of assessing the cybersecurity, to position countries by their level of development in the global space, to identify strengths and weaknesses in cybersecurity management, and to ensure effective protection of cyberspace at the national level.Materials and Methods. Used the component indices of the international rankings characterizing the potential of the digital economy (ICT IDI, NRI, EGDI) and the participation of countries in the field of cybersecurity(GCI and NCSI).Results. It has been argued that cybersecurity ratings play the role of a kind of identifier of the relative advantages and vulnerabilities of the national cyber strategies, and indicate the need for their review in order tostrengthen protection against cyber-attacks and improve the cyber risk management system. In countries with a high level of economic development, which is largely based on the contribution of IT technologies to the national production, the cybersecurity potential is significantly higher, regardless of geolocation. The discovered correlation between GCI, information society development indices (IDI, NRI, EGDI) and GDPper capita confirms that the digital transformation of the economy and society acts as a key driver of economicdevelopment if the information- and cyber-security are assured only. The best practices are highlighted, andcritically weak segments of the national cybersecurity are identified.Conclusions. Using the NCSI indicators, the preparedness of Georgia and Ukraine to prevent the implementation of fundamental cyber threats and to manage cyber incidents and large-scale cyber crises is assessed.

Trends in IT Strategy Implementation: A Systematic Review Across Education and Industry (2000–2022)

“…However, challenges in implementing IT strategies have also evolved along with information and communication technology development dynamics. One indicator that can be used to view these dynamics is the growth of papers discussing implementing IT strategies in the public domain [20]. These papers' development reflects how IT strategy implementation trends are applied to various sectors.…”

“…The implementation of the information technology strategy is a sign and direction of the process of adapting the development of information technology systematically and measurably. To see global trends in awareness of the industry and education sectors, one of the analytical metrics that can be used is to look at the productivity of publications that discuss these topics [20]. Studying the implementation of IT strategy, in both education and industry holds importance for reasons.…”

Decision Modeling and Evaluation of Enterprise Digital Transformation Using Data Mining

“…It can be seen from Figure 3 that the area AUC under the ROC curve is 0.87, which exceeds 0.8. It is considered that the effect of model fitting is suitable, and the decision tree is visually displayed [19][20]. By prepruning the decision tree, the node splitting of the decision tree is based on the gain principle of maximum information entropy.…”

Comparison of National-Level Cybersecurity and Cyber Power Indices: A Conceptual Framework

“…Rather than index comparison, their study focused on the impact of the indices over ALDC by using regression analysis. Yerina et al [26] analyzed two global cybersecurity indices (GCI and NCSI) together with IDI, NRI (Networked Readiness Index), EGDI (eGovernment Development Index) and GDP (Gross Domestic Product) per-capita. Rather than comparison of the cybersecurity indices, they focused to discover the relations between cybersecurity and digital economy.…”
