Current Problems of Countering Administrative Offense Completed Using Information Technology

The processes of informatization and digitalization are intensified in many spheres of life of Russian society and the state, which, in addition to the positive impact, creates significant threats of the spread of illegal practices associated with the use of modern information and digital technologies. Despite the fact that the legal regulation of information legal relations in the Russian Federation is currently receiving close attention, the popularity of mobile communications, the Internet and other technologies for remote interaction of the population causes an expansion in the scope of illegal behavior. In this context, the study of modern mechanisms for combating administrative offenses committed using information technologies is of particular importance. The purpose of the presented study is to analyze the state of modern mechanisms for combating administrative offenses committed using information technologies, identifying existing problems and determining ways to solve them. The author comes to the conclusion that modern mechanisms for countering these acts are characterized by the presence of a number of problems that are objectively determined by the dynamics of information and digital progress, which are ahead of the legal regulation of the stated area, and therefore difficulties arise in identifying, qualifying offenses and imposing fair and proportionate punishment. The fundamental importance of preventive and preventive activities is noted in terms of increasing the level of information and digital literacy to ensure the safe use of modern technologies, which will significantly reduce the vulnerability of the Russian population to offenses of this nature.
