Dear participants of the 5th International Conference on information security
«Infoforum-Ugra»,
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation traditionally actively
participates in the organized events of the International Conference on Information
Security «Infoforum».
We consider the Infoforum as an excellent opportunity to keep the superiors and
specialists of the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation informed about
information security issues. We consider Infoforum as one of the best communication
platforms in Russia for exchanging experience and strengthening business relations
between specialists in the field of information security.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, together with other state
authorities, participates in the development of information technologies, which play an
important role in all areas of public activity.
In the context of a steady increase in the number of threats in the information sphere,
ensuring that the level of security of information assets and supporting infrastructure is
adequate to the threats requires carefully thought-out and systematic work.
The Forum platform brings together almost all federal ministries and departments,
leading specialized organizations in the field of information security, the media, industry
veteran organizations and provides an opportunity to discuss topical issues of ensuring
the information security of the state, society, organizations and individuals in the new
political and economic conditions.
As part of the business program of the Forum, it is planned to consider a number of
important issues that are of great importance for all specialists in the field of information
security.
On behalf of the leadership of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation
and on my own behalf, I wish the forum participants successful work and the development
of mutually beneficial cooperation.
