Abstract

The article discusses features of interaction of trust and security in the digital economy in the context of their impact on the changes in the digital environment. The development of the digital economy as an absolute economic imperative actualizes the issue due to its theoretical and practical relevance. The purpose is to study trust and security in the digital economy in their interconnection and develop proposals for the improvement of trust and security in the digital environment. It was found that the relationship and interdependence of trust and security is nonlinear due to the ambiguity of the concept "trust". An analysis of the results of the global study of the Digital Society Index 2019: Human Needs in a Digital World and statistical data on the digital economy of Russia showed an imbalance in the "trust-security" link, when a low level of trust in digital products is combined with a fairly developed system of information security. Relevant proposals have been formulated to balance trust and security in the digital economy. It is necessary to balance a model of digital development with a focus on ensuring confidence in the digital environment and maintain the active state policy in the field of information security. Limitations of this model for the development of the digital economy are ineffective institutions. Expanding the tools of control by civil society and involvement of people in the discussion of digital innovation, the implementation of programs aimed at teaching citizens information security when using digital products will contribute to the development of the digital economy.
