Makeieva, PhD (Law), Kyiv, ORCID 0000-0001-6101-2951 FACTORS OF NETWORK ECONOMY DEVELOPMENT IN UKRAINE: ECONOMIC AND LEGAL CONTEXT Urgency of the research. In modern conditions of global economy development, non-material factors of production, in particular information and knowledge, become the main factor of innovative development of the economy and the basis for increasing the country competitiveness. The use of information and communi- cation technologies (ICT) as one of the most important mechanisms for managing the network economy, pro- vides a reduction in transaction costs and production ef- ficiency increasing, more efficient business model use, reduction in the production and sales cycle, more accu- rate forecasting of the economic conjuncture. In turn, the network economy allows enterprises to use their poten- tial more widely and reach set goals. Target setting. Today, when competition becomes a global phenomenon, the success of developed econo- mies depends to a large extent on the ability to acquire, develop and disseminate knowledge, information and introduce advanced technologies. In order to ensure the process continuity, it is necessary to clearly identify the network economy catalyzing and constraining factors, which will help to generate greater economic benefits and will manage the risks and negative consequences of the ICT spread in business and society. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. When studying the network economy development fac- tors, the following works are of great importance: the studies by M. Castells [1], in which the author analyzed current trends leading to the network economy for- mation in details, and by K. Kelly [2], who determined a number of features and principles of the "network economy" in market conditions. Practical aspects of this problems in Ukrainian scientific thought were investi- gated by Belyatskaya T.N, Knyazeva L.P. [3], Vyshnev- sky A.S [4], Zybareva O.V., [5] Prognimak O.D. [6], Sokolova G. B. [7]. Uninvestigated parts of general matters defin- ing. The issue of economic development factors of eco- nomic structures, considering the specifics of the net- work principles of the functioning of the economic mechanism and the peculiarities of the domestic market environment requires sufficient studying. The research objective is to identify the network economy development factors in Ukraine that deter / fa- cilitate the business development in Ukraine on the basis of analysis of international indexes of the information environment development, to justify threats to infor- mation security of doing business in Ukraine. The statement of basic materials. The factors de- termining the willingness of Ukrainian enterprises to participate in the network economy on the basis of the dynamics analysis of the network readiness (NRI 2010- 2016) and doing business (DB 2010-2018) indexes us- ing SWOT analysis are described in Table 1.

Source: created by the author. In general rating of 139 countries around the world in terms of the ICT development level in 2016, Ukraine has taken a 64 rating position [8], having improved by 7 points compared to last year, ahead of even EU mem- bers, such as Romania and Bulgaria, which indicates the ICT development is promising. This was facilitated by the availability of tariffs for mobile communications and telecommunications ser- vices; high level of literacy and awareness of adult in ICT; the growth in sales of smartphones (which are mul- tifunctional and high-tech devices that can replace other accessories), especially in small towns and villages; ac- cessibility of a high-speed 3G network and the recent launch of 4G network (LTE). In recent years, the facilitating factor of the regula- tory environment has become simplification of the mechanisms for obtaining permits and registration pro- cedures, which affected their number, duration and cost (the Unified State Register of Legal Entities and Indi- vidual Entrepreneurs, whose information is open and available for public was created, electronic registration of business entities was introduced) [9]; Expansion of free electronic access for the population to individual registries (in particular, from 2015 to the State Land Ca- dastre through the Public Cadastre map map.land.gov. ua). Among the main constraints in the development of the infrastructure and the regulatory environment of net- work readiness for the period 2010-2018, the insuffi- cient legislative support for the development of the in- formation society formation issues, the network econ- omy, e-government, e-commerce, etc. should be noted. At the same time, the following issues remain open: the independence of courts; the effectiveness of legal system for disputes settlement; the strengthening judiciary responsibility to society; the implementation of the updated constitutional principles of justice at the legislative level to ensure the independence (depolitici- zation) of the judiciary; the establishment at the law level of a mandatory pre-trial procedure for the settle- ment of disputes in specific cases, which will provide Yа. Pushak, I. Kravchuk, O. Makeieva 40 Економічний вісник Донбасу № 4(54), 2018 the basis for alternative methods of disputes resolution development, such as mediation, etc. [10]. The problem of protecting intellectual property also remains urgent. In recent years particularly acute is the issue of software piracy and plagiarism, high level of unlicensed software and computer games use. To analyze the level of network readiness of both the state and business, it is important to legislate and im- plement it in practice. The study of Ukraine's rating in- dicators made it possible to establish the presence of a certain pattern: low positions in the rating are where real business processes are evaluated (international trade, taxation, connection to power networks, partially it is construction and bankruptcy), it is a little higher in the case of exclusively legislative activity. The positive dynamics of Ukraine's network readi- ness for 2010-2016 allowed the construction of its fore- cast for 2017-2020 (since the number of countries par- ticipating in the NRI Index has changed over the years, the NRI estimate was used for the forecast, but not the place in the ranking) (Figure 1). Fig. 1. The forecast of Ukraine's network readiness for 2020 Source: created by the author The forecast of Ukraine's position in the world ra- ting is to some extent an indicator of the state regulation mechanism effectiveness in the field of ICT and enter- prises prospects. The positive trend line shows the growth of Ukraine's network readiness in 2020 to 4.85. The obtained forecast indicator corresponds to the cur- rent value in the rating with 32-35 places and an estimate of 4.8 to such countries as Latvia, Saudi Arabia, Malta, Spain. Ukraine can reach the top 20 leaders – Austria, Israel, Estonia, Belgium, according to this trend, only in 2024 with a score of 5.4. However, the level of techno- logy is changing at a rapid pace, so it is necessary to build a clear strategy to achieve the results of these countries. Under condition of the ICT spread in business and society, information security measures become im- portant, since the network economy not only brings many advantages and creates additional opportunities for business development, but also generates a number of threats that are destructive for both the individual and the region and country as a whole. The main threats for spreading the network eco- nomy in modern conditions are: information terrorism (through the use of the media, spreading rumors, dis- semination of false (distorted, presented in a favorable context) information, activities of unfair competition); cyberterrorism (because of the infiltration of citizens, enterprises, government agencies, political parties into the computer networks, that can influence the violation of the world order); information attacks (through the spread of fakes (about military conflicts, the ecological situation, social and humanitarian problems in certain territories, anti-advertising of competitors, dissemina- tion of compromising materials (often false infor- mation) about business structures, that often precedes raider seizure, etc.); intentional point impact on a partic- ular population group, which is most vulnerable to this information (pensioners, national minorities, ATО ve- terans, adolescents, etc.); the religious and public organ- izations use; use of memetic weapons (primarily through social networks in order to impose stereotypes of thinking and behavior in business and society); the problem of protecting personal data (penetration through social networks (for example, recent events with Facebook) into the personal information space of citizens in order to use their personal data and manipu- Yа. Pushak, I. Kravchuk, O. Makeieva 41 Економічний вісник Донбасу № 4(54), 2018 late both consciousness and behavior in society); infor- mation overload (through "pollution of the information space" and the constant imposition of unnecessary infor- mation, which often makes it difficult to sort it out); par- tial or complete replacement of a person with artificial intelligence in a professional and public environment (for example, running a robot in mayoral election in Ja- pan); influence on the psychological state of the popula- tion through the formation of phobias through the Inter- net network. The reaction of the European Union to the scandal with the leakage of information via Facebook is indica- tive as for increasing information security of protecting the personal information space and personal data in this case: since May 2018, the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force (created and adopted in 2016) [11], which is intended to guarantee the safety and protection of personal information of ci- tizens of the EU and other countries whose data are used on the territory of the European Union. The energy, fi- nancial companies, telecom operators and reservation services, e-shops and social networks falls under the terms of the GDPR2016 regulations first of all. Effective financial sanctions are provided for the regulations vio- lation: 20 million EUR or 4% of annual income for vio- lation of GDPR2016 key provisions, personal data sub- jects rights, standards for the personal data transfer, etc. A feature of the new GDPR regulation is that it includes an IP address to the personal data; prohibits the collec- tion of redundant personal data, inaccurate information must be updated or deleted on time; provides monitoring of behavioral personality activity in social networks, geolocation for targeting and personalization of adver- tising; a data leakage statement is required within 72 hours to the European Data Protection Board (EDPB), the only regulatory body in the EU [12]. Under the conditions of European integration, Ukrainian enter- prises should carefully review their own information policy in the field of storage, processing and use of per- sonal data in accordance with the standards of doing business in the EU. Conclusions. The main factors constraining the development of ICT in the Ukrainian economy is insuf- ficient level of their use by the government, business; insufficient legislative support of the network economy, problems with the intellectual property protection; a low level of new technologies adoption in business; insuffi- cient level of ICT influence on the emergence of new business models, which is probably connected with un- favorable business environment, while the low govern- ment readiness can be explained by the lack of a clear official ICT strategy and inadequate ability to use it. It should be noted that not only the fact of passing the law, but also the communication campaign is im- portant, therefore, digital strategies should be aimed not only at developing the ICT infrastructure, but also at cre- ating the necessary conditions for the ICT effective use in order to increase innovation, competitiveness, greater social integration. Effective development of the information space is impossible without taking into account the observance of information security conditions for the implementa- tion of electronic transactions on the Internet, electronic document management, mind-maps use, digital signa- ture mechanisms. Therefore, in the system of infiltration of the network economy into all spheres of economic activity, it is important to observe the criteria of infor- mation security, which will contribute to stabilization in the relations between the market holders and become one of the key components of business development. State policies and company strategies with the aim of maximizing the economic and social effects of the network economy should be aimed at coordinating ef- forts among stakeholders in the field of ICT dissemina- tion, emphasizing the key focus on the development and strengthening of public-private partnership.
