Information security in the structure of economic security of modern enterprises

The article substantiates the relevance of information security for improving the economic security of an enterprise in modern conditions. The methodological framework includes an analysis of scientific literature, systematic and comparative approaches that allow a comprehensive reflection of the interaction of economic and informational components. Three different approaches to the study of the economic security of an enterprise have been identified, which made it possible to consider the place of information security in the work of modern enterprises. The author's definition of enterprise information security is proposed, taking into account the relationship with the general level of economic security and reflecting the importance of information security for solving the tasks of modern enterprises. The key importance of information security within the framework of the selected approaches is shown. The theoretical value of the research lies in complementing the scientific discourse by clarifying the content of economic security in terms of the information component, which expands the understanding of the structure and essence of economic security, allowing information risks to be considered as one of the key factors influencing the sustainability of the enterprise. The practical significance of the results obtained lies in the possible application of the main provisions and conclusions by enterprises when developing economic security strategies, including assessing the level of information security, which is especially important in conditions of increased external threats and sanctions pressure. The prospects for the development of this topic are related to the formation of a comprehensive methodological framework for integrating information security into all levels of economic security of an enterprise, as well as conducting a comparative analysis of the state and problems of information security of enterprises in the context of their economic security by industry or country.
