Synopsis

Modern countries need to pursue policies that are open to new technologies. This is not only due to widespread access to the Internet and but also to the necessity to build cyber-threat resilience. On the one hand, information technology allows public administrations to reach their addressees more quickly and more cost-effectively, while on the other hand, it poses new risks associated with the use of ICT systems that are not always correctly protected. These systems should operate smoothly or, if such disruptions occur, they should not disable the operation of public entities. Digital competences are also important, both regarding employees of public administration and the beneficiaries of the electronic services it provides. The monograph analyses the status of public administration in cyberspace. The legal basis for e-government in the Visegrad countries, where it is playing an increasingly important role in public life, has been discussed. Information society requires that the public administration meet its digital needs.
