Abstract

This paper examines the situation on informational security in Uzbekistan by drawing attention to importance of CYBERSECURITY as it is gaining significance at breakneck speed and a growing number of cyber threat incidents are being detected. Amid the India’s digital push, having strong cybersecurity and information security systems has increasingly become crucial to protect sensitive personal data, national infrastructure and businesses. The study examines the political and technical progress in cybersecurity regulation made by Uzbekistan, with an emphasis on legislation that has been developed (including data protection laws) and national agencies established for cybersecurity such as the National Cyber security Center. The research adopts a mixed methods approach, applying qualitative interviews with IT professionals and quantitative surveys with respect to perceived appropriateness of security technologies involved, including the biometric authentication system. The results indicate progress in complying with fundamental cybersecurity measures like login and password policies, as well as increased use of biometric systems. But the study also illustrates persistent challenges, such as the growth of sophisticated cyberattacks like ransomware and phishing. The report ends with suggestions on how Uzbekistan can further develop its security infrastructure to safeguard against cyber warfare.Laying the Groundwork for the FutureOf course, this is just the beginning. These initiatives should guarantee the ongoing safety and viability of Uzbekistan's digital economy.
