Implementing Digital Solutions to Safeguard the Economic and Legal Stability of Industrial Enterprises

Introduction: In today’s technological world, digital transformation has become a prerequisite for the successful operation of any enterprise. This digital transformation is fundamentally changing approaches to doing business, setting new standards of efficiency and competitiveness in the global market. Objectives: The study aims to qualitatively assess the current level of use of digital tools for integrated management of industrial enterprises’ economic and legal security, identify potential areas for developing digital security in this area, and justify the need to introduce cyber defence in the current business environment. Methods: The study was conducted using a set of methods, including theoretical analysis, empirical research, and regulatory and legal analysis of the problem of using digital tools to ensure industrial enterprises’ economic and legal security. Results: The article presents a study that covers both the impact of digital transformation on business and the analysis of current trends and challenges in this area. It has been proved that digital transformation involves introducing innovative technologies that automate processes, optimise resource management, and facilitate the adoption of sound management decisions. The international indices that assess countries’ digital development level, particularly the quality of communication, availability of digital services and cybersecurity, are analysed. Conclusions: Thus, the current business challenges associated with digital transformation are identified. The author identifies typical obstacles in managing industrial enterprises with the introduction of digital transformation, areas of implementation and several digital tools to ensure their digital security, and provides proposals for the introduction of legal mechanisms for digital transformation.
