According to Forbes, the proposals are contained in the preliminary version of the "Strategy for the Development of the Communications Industry in the Russian Federation for 2024-2035," which is being developed on behalf of Russian President Vladimir Putin. The document, in particular, speaks of the need to deploy a national system to counter DDoS attacks. It is assumed that the platform will be based on technical means of countering threats (TSPU), that is, equipment that, among other things, allows restricting access to information prohibited in Russia. Such funds are installed on the networks of all telecom operators in the Russian Federation.
The authors of the strategy also propose to create a computer incident monitoring and response center (TelcoCERT). It is said about the need to introduce an early warning system for threats and protection against illegal actions using information technologies. At the same time, it is proposed to connect information protection tools and points of cross-border crossing and traffic exchange to the State system of detection, prevention and elimination of consequences of computer attacks platform (a state system for detecting, preventing and eliminating the consequences of computer attacks to protect critical information infrastructure).
Other measures include: preventing "scanning of Russian information systems from abroad"; the use of equipment on communication networks in Russia with mandatory certification of the FSTEC and the FSB; implementation of the Antifrod system to exclude number substitution in Russian telephone networks; Using the routing validation mechanism development of an information system that checks the country identity (geo-IP location) of networks and telecom operators both in Russia and abroad.[2]

In the interests of the business community, the passport includes activities on practical-oriented information security training based on the experience of leading companies in the digital economy.
In addition, within the framework of the federal project, the FSB of Russia is implementing a number of measures, one of them, the most resource-intensive, is aimed at converting Russian cryptography. In this case, we are talking about reorienting cryptographic practices previously implemented in a closed format to the civilian sphere, with the participation of business and the expert community.
| | "The draft passport of the federal project" Information Security "considered at the meeting of the working group was prepared by the Ministry of Digital Science of Russia. It is important that the key proposals of the business community regarding improving the literacy of the population in the field of cybersecurity, developing personnel potential and the security of state information systems were included in the new edition of the federal project, "commented Nikolai Zubarev, director of the Information Security area of the Digital Economy organization. | |
2017: Approved action plan for "Information Security" of the program "Digital Economy of the Russian Federation"
On December 18, 2017, the Government Commission on the Use of Information Technologies to Improve the Quality of Life and Business Conditions approved an action plan for the Information Security direction of the Digital Economy of the Russian Federation program for 2018-2024.
According to the Prime Minister, the Russia Dmitry Medvedev plan contains measures that allow to prevent cybercrime at the modern technological level.
| | Moreover, we are talking not only about security in the information space, but also about legal protection in the digital economy. One of the tasks of this section is to increase the literacy of ordinary users so that they feel comfortable in the digital environment, use Internet services, are not lost in the variety of public services, are not afraid of modern technologies in this area, but, on the other hand, have the necessary knowledge in order to make competent decisions. Because ultimately this is always the decision of one person who interacts with the digital environment, and he must have versatile ideas about what to do, - said the prime minister. | |
Financing
The plan provides for funding from the federal budget in the amount of 22,333 million rubles and extrabudgetary funding - 11,710 million rubles.
2020: Spending on the federal project "Information Security" increased 8 times
As it became known in early October 2020, the costs of the implementation of the federal project "Information Security" in 2022-2023. will be eight times more than expected - 8 against 1 billion rubles for each year.
As Izvestia writes with reference to the new version of the project passport, Information Security has the most significant budget increase compared to other federal projects of the Digital Economy.
Almost half of the budget can be taken over by the creation and operation of a national technological center for the implementation of methods of modern cryptography. In 2022 and 2023, 4 billion and 4.2 billion rubles will be spent on these purposes, respectively. In total, the center will need 11.5 billion rubles of state financing. The authorities are also going to send budget funds to analyze the security of state information systems.
According to experts interviewed by the publication, the most costly part is the technical implementation of the federal project. It includes projects to filter Internet traffic, counter computer attacks and create cyber polygons. The project, at least in explicit form, did not include measures aimed at preventing leaks and protecting personal data of citizens, experts say. In the current version of the federal project, the state has focused on protecting society and itself from external and global risks, they say.
Sergei Soshnikov, Softline Business Development Director for the Digital Economy National Project, believes that it would be logical to direct part of the funds to system security, primarily when the state and citizens interact on digital platforms. He connects this with the fact that the sites of state institutions and the portal of public services, as well as the resources of financial organizations, are an attractive target for hackers.[5]

In addition, the meeting participants identified organizational and technical measures that need to be taken by the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications to switch to the use of Russian cryptography "while ensuring electronic interaction between state authorities, organizations and citizens," the Russian Security Council said.
The news agency notes that protection against cyber threats is one of the key components of the country's national security. Cyber attacks on IT infrastructure are considered one of the forms of interference of outside forces in the affairs of sovereign states.
According to the Russian National Coordination Center for Computer Incidents, more than 4.3 billion digital impacts on Russia's critical information infrastructure were committed in 2018. Most often, banks and authorities in Russia face attacks. At the same time, the special services note an increase in the number of attempts at hacker attacks on the information infrastructure of critical facilities in Russia, including in the energy sector and in transport.
In October 2019, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said that Russia is working on the development of a national system in the field of cybersecurity, but total security in the digital world can lead to loss of privacy.[6]

In 2018, the competence center for inter-machine interaction will be determined, including cyber-physical systems and the "Internet of Things," its subordination, powers, functions will be determined.
In the same period, it is planned to develop an architecture and a prototype of a specialized resource intended for the interaction of citizens with authorized bodies in terms of the operational transmission of data on signs of illegal actions in the field of information technologies (computer fraud, imposed services of telecom operators, phishing schemes) in order to counter computer crime.
Also in 2018, measures are planned to improve standards for secure application development, including for government information systems.
Expected results for the year end of the implementation period of the action plan
As a result of the implementation of the plan, the target information security values on communication networks and in the Russian segment of the Internet should be achieved. A system of incentives should be created for the purchase and use of Russian-made computer, server and telecommunications equipment. Mechanisms have been created to stimulate the use of domestic software by all participants in information interaction.
In addition, national standards for cyberphysical systems, including the Internet of Things, should be adopted. Control of processing and access to personal data, large user data, including in social networks and other means of social communication, is ensured. National and regional computer incident response centers have been established.
It is also expected that following the implementation of the program, a system of measures will be developed to support Russian manufacturers of ICT products and services that patent products abroad.
Targets and indicators
The approved plan contains a list of targets and indicators. For example, the share of domestic network traffic of the Russian segment of the Internet, routed through foreign servers, should decrease to 10% by 2024. From 50% in 2018 to 10% in 2024, the value share of foreign software purchased by the public sector and companies with state participation should fall .
From 10% in 2018 to 90% in 2024, the share of subjects of information interaction (state authorities and local governments, companies with state participation) using security standards in cyberphysical systems and in terms of the Internet of Things should increase.
The share of citizens who have increased literacy in the field of information security, media consumption and the use of Internet services by 2024 should be 50%.
The average downtime of government information systems as a result of computer attacks should be reduced from 65 hours in 2018 to 1 hours a 2024.
