Agile transformation and performing management of IT and cyber security projects, at the government level

Abstract

In an information society in which the quality of life, as well as the prospects for social change and economic development, depend to a greater extent on information and its exploitation, the institutional field of management of IT applications for European funds becomes a matter of national importance, with critical values for national security. Reinventing government can be achieved through digitalization and government computerization, which involves modernizing the current IT infrastructure through specific external funding sources such as European funds, doubled and secured by advanced cyber protection and defense capabilities against possible vulnerabilities or cyber-attacks. Knowledge and scientific information are of enormous importance in the global information society, by: supporting innovation, promoting economic development, making decisions in an efficient and transparent way, at the governmental level and especially for the implementation and use of intelligent technologies in the development of the degree of digitization of public services through financing provided by European funds and the National Recovery and Resilience Plan. In order to move on to building the knowledge society, it is necessary to reduce the digital gap, which accentuates disparities in development, excluding groups and even countries, from the benefit of information and knowledge. The limiting factor in development will be related to the human capacity to assimilate and develop these technologies, to use them in new fields of activity, for new products and services.
