Agile approaches to developing e-Business solutions in a secure cyber environment

Abstract

Modernity is characterized by major transformations and evolutions, which have penetrated into the depths of all levels of human existence, in all economic, political and social spheres, thus significantly increasing the quality of life. The Information Society is the model of society in which the main good is information itself. Although the accelerated development of information and communication technologies (ICT) is the process behind the evolution of the information society, the new model of society means much more than technological progress. In the technological age, action plans and policies are being developed to meet the challenges, the most important technology being ICT, which allows information to be processed and conveyed in a revolutionary way.The information society is the ICT-based knowledge society. Information society technologies will evolve in the direction of being at the fingertips of the knowledge process, by generating, storing, and transmitting knowledge. Knowledge is the result of the information management process, thus promoting innovation, economic development, and decision-making in an efficient and transparent way.
