Cybersecurity in the digital social services system

the relevance of the study is due to the digitalization of social services, accompanied by an increase in cyber threats aimed at theft of personal data, fraud and disruption of critical social services. In the context of the massive digital transition of public services, ensuring their security is becoming a key factor in protecting citizens' rights and the sustainability of social infrastructure. The purpose of the study is to identify specific cybersecurity threats in digital social service systems, evaluate the effectiveness of modern protection methods and develop recommendations to increase their resistance to cyber-attacks. The main tasks included: analyzing the structure and dynamics of cyber threats in the social sphere; assessing the vulnerabilities of typical architectures of digital social services; studying the effectiveness of various protection mechanisms; developing a risk assessment model taking into account the specifics of social services. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the systematization of threats specific to the social sphere, including targeted attacks on personal data systems and social fraud. The practical significance lies in the recommendations developed to modernize the protection systems of digital social services, which can be used by government agencies, developers of IT solutions and regulators in the field of information security.
