Impact of Socio-Economic Factors on Digital Literacy and Security

Summary/Abstract: In the current digital environment, where misinformation and cyber threats pose significant challenges, developing and implementing effective strategies to enhance digital literacy and security is essential. This study examines Slovakia's approaches to individual digital management, with a focus on policies and initiatives aimed at increasing digital literacy and strengthening cybersecurity. A comprehensive analysis of demographic and socio-economic factors, including HDI, education levels, internet access rates, and others, is utilized to identify patterns that may influence the effectiveness of these policies. Methodologies such as regression analyses and clustering are employed to identify key factors impacting citizens' digital literacy and their ability to respond effectively to cyber threats. The findings indicate that a high HDI and availability of educational resources are associated with an enhanced capacity for citizens to critically analyze and safely engage with online content. Based on the analysis, targeted educational programs are recommended to address the specific needs of different demographic groups and raise awareness of cybersecurity.
