CITIZENS’ DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE AS A NEW ELEMENT OF MODERN SOCIETY CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
Widespread digitalization of the modern society - the emergence of digital devices, the introduction of Internet of Things, the development of Big Data processing and other technologies result in new challenges. Not only industrial and corporate automation that has already been considerably covered by the legislation initiatives but also the digitalization of everyday life has started to constitute a critical infrastructure in the modern society. This largely happens because digital devices substituting traditional technologies owned by citizens are incorporated into corporate, financial and state business processes. For instance, citizens’ devices are becoming the source of primary data for energy and utility companies. More opportunities for the direct interaction of automation solutions between themselves resulting in a controversial synergy effect have been emerging recently. The article addresses specifics of citizens’ digital infrastructure in the light of critical infrastructure, in particular the necessity and special aspects of legal and regulatory framework and possible development trends of this functionality.
