Abstract:
The advent of Internet technology has increased the ability to access information from a variety of sources quickly and easily to an unprecedented extent for everyone - from the average citizen to large organizations. Government agencies, science and education institutions, commercial enterprises and individuals began to create and store information in electronic form. This environment offers great convenience compared to previous physical storage: storage is very compact, transmission takes place instantly, and the possibilities of accessing rich databases over the network are very wide. The ability to use information effectively has led to a rapid increase in the amount of information.
