The article analyzes the legal support for electronic document management in Ukraine. It is determined that the introduction of innovative transformations in Ukraine in the context of information technology development involves the use of modern forms and methods of work based on electronic information exchange. Numerous forms and methods that have been used for decades in the field of information and communication relations for information processing have proven to be unjustified and ineffective in the new social and information and innovative realities. Electronic document management has replaced paper document management. The study found that the electronic document management system in Ukraine is undergoing a long path of development and formation. The introduction of electronic document management contributes to the digital modernization of Ukraine. The availability of reformed legislation is important for carrying out qualitative changes, which generates legal certainty of the status of subjects of the process of significant transformations. The electronic form of documents provides the necessary level of information security for participants in legal relations, since the exchange of documents occurs in encrypted form using a qualified electronic signature. It has been established that there is a saving of human and material resources that were previously used for printing, sending and storing documents. Remote advantages provide mobility and convenience of document transfer via electronic document management platforms or e-mail. The implementation of this document management system allows creating electronic archives for more efficient document storage. It has been established that the main effect of introducing electronic document management is resource-based. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the risks of introducing electronic document management by both state and local government bodies a nd business entities. The state of electronic document management in Ukraine in the field of public administration has been analyzed and ways of its further development have been identified. It has been established that the legal support for electronic document management requires further development, updating, balance, harmonization with international legal norms and standards. Implementation of high-quality legal, institutional, organizational, and managerial transformations in the sphere of public administration in the context of European integration requirements based on the recognition of a person as the highest social value is an urgent vital necessity, which will contribute to the development of Ukraine as a competitive state with a strong economy and advanced technologi es.

The article examines a new object of forensic economic examination – cryptocurrency. The author provides classic definitions of an object of forensic examination and establish the differences of cryptocurrency from the traditionally understood objects of both forensic examination in general and economic examination in particular. The main difference of cryptocurrency from other currencies and objects of investigation is its virtual nature, lack of affiliation with the material world. Two main points of view on the essence of cryptocurrency are analyzed: as a basis and tool for the development of new effective forms of payments, exchange of goods, and as an object and instrument of criminal activity. A definition of cryptocurrency is given as interpreted by the FATF – Financial Action Task Force. It is identified which issues related to the circulation of cryptocurrency can be attributed to the competence of a forensic expert-economist, and which – to the field of computer forensics. The author also describes the features of cryptocurrency that must be taken into account when considering it as an object of forensic economic examination.

The article is devoted to consideration of modern problems of determining the admissibility of digital (electronic) evidence in criminal proceedings. Given the importance of the outlined issues, the main purpose of the study is to characterize each component of the admissibility of such evidence, namely: the proper source of receipt, the proper subject, and the proper method of collection. It is emphasized that the biggest doctrinal problem that creates an obstacle in the definition of such criteria is the lack of a unified scientific vision regarding the concept of digital (electronic) evidence and the definition of its source. The existence of three scientific approaches to the solution of this problem was established, taking into account the author's position on possible ways of its elimination. Some practical aspects related to the problems of compliance with the criteria of admissibility of digital (electronic) evidence during the investigation of criminal offenses are disclosed. On the basis of a systematic analysis of scientific work and judicial practice, it was determined that the difficulty of solving problematic aspects of the admissibility of digital (electronic) evidence is related to their complex technical nature. This is due to the fact that digital (electronic) evidence contains abstract technical and mathematical models, characterized by specific conditions of origin, existence, copying and storage, which significantly differ from other types of evidentiary information. It has been proven that when determining digital (electronic) evidence, such a mandatory feature as relevance to a certain criminal proceeding should be displayed. This is explained by the fact that in a criminal trial, digital (electronic) evidence can only be the information that is of direct importance for a certain criminal proceeding. Another mandatory component of the definition of “digital (electronic) evidence” should be an indication of its specific nature. At the same time, it is inappropriate to recognize the approach when the definitions simultaneously indicate the electronic nature of such information and its concentration on a certain electronic medium. Information that is on a certain electronic medium is electronic and not any other. Otherwise, it leads to duplication and is a logical fallacy. It is suggested that the source of digital (electronic) evidence be considered a digital (electronic) object by means of which this evidentiary information was created, recorded or transmitted. The lack of official definition of digital (electronic) evidence and their sources, in contrast to civil and administrative procedural legislation, is among the shortcomings of the current criminal procedural legislation of Ukraine. However, the definitions proposed by the legislator contain shortcomings, in particular, the fixed definitions of digital (electronic) evidence contain an unjustified opposition of related concepts, such as “information”, “data” and “facts”.

In public procurement, a multitude of data is used, produced, and exchanged in various ways and formats. Laws and regulations often require that the exchange of information takes place through signed and recorded documents, following specific authorization processes. On the other hand, many modern Project Management techniques rely on accurate knowledge of project data, which requires information flow to occur in a structured and digital manner. The concept of an Electronic Document and Records Management System was created for this purpose, to combine document flow and structured information flow. However, in practice, it is difficult to find ready-to-use commercial solutions, and many administrations choose to use traditional document management systems. This work aims to investigate the two requirements independently and then jointly, proposing a clean and simple approach to align them. The chosen approach envisions a two-tier system with defined functional specifications, where the first tier coincides with an existing document management system. The outcome demonstrates how to implement an Electronic Document and Records Management System by retrofitting a traditional document engine. The described approach will be tested through a case study related to a large public construction contract. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
