Abstract
One of the most active consumers and generators of information is the education, where the intellectual and moral potential of future generations is formed. Currently, there are abundant examples of inaccurate, distorted or primitive information presentation in the Internet space.
The purposes of the study are to identify the risk factors and threats of information security in higher education; to give a theoretical justification for the urgent necessity of information security at engineering university; to provide successful socialization and personal development in modern society within the era of digital transformation.
The study is based on the analysis of psychological, pedagogical and sociological sources, empirical methods: observation, conversation and survey. It allows to study the complex system of potential and real threats to the information security of an individual and society and to assess the main information objects from the point of view of security of students and teachers.
The experiment was carried out at Kazan National Research Technological University. The respondents were first, second and third year Bachelors of the Faculty of Plastics and Composites Processing. The respondents were asked to assess the presence of digital safety components in the educational space.
Analyzing the data of students’ answers, one can state a high degree of understanding of threats and negative consequences in the digital space, as well as the prevailing desire of students to gain knowledge, recommendations for identifying destructive forms of influence on the Internet, to get acquainted with the strategies for the development of critical thinking and self-development.
The system of higher education should focus on ensuring digital security of the subjects of the educational process, preventing harm from dangerous information influences on the cognitive, mental, moral or physical state of the individual.
