Abstract
Problem setting. The article deals with actual issues of improvement of information technologies by the police in
Ukraine as a guarantee of information security in particular and national security of the country in general, the study and
application of the successful experience of foreign countries such as Great Britain and Lithuania, in order to improve the
activities of Ukrainian law enforcement agencies.
Target of research. The purpose of the study is the research based on an analysis of theoretical principles, laws,
positive experience of foreign countries in order to outline the main problems of implementation and use of modern
technologies in the police of Ukraine to further improve the work of the Ukrainian law enforcement agencies.
Analysis of recent researches and publications. The following scientists analyze separate aspects of the question
in their researches: A. Bandurka, I. Voronov, S. Gusarov, M. Gutsalyuk, V. Zhuravlev, V. Zakharov, M. Litvinov, A. Manzhay,
S. Ovchynskyy, A. Osipenko, Y. Orlov, M. Perepelytsya, O. Pronevych and others.
Using new technologies and communications, international criminal networks are becoming increasingly interrelated;
they dynamically adapt to new conditions, problems and opportunities. Thus, it is logical that the highly professional
police activities require highly technical solutions.
Conclusions and prospects for the development. While reforming the system of the Ministry of Interior, especially
concerning the implementation and use of modern technologies in the police of Ukraine one will certainly need to
take into account the experience of the foreign countries, especially Great Britain, where there is one of the most professional
police structures in the world, and Lithuania, where the activities of the police are meticulously regulated and fixed
in the current legislation. Fixing at the legislative level the administrative and legal provisions to protect information in
the activities of the police, preparing a draft of regulations (domestic orders, instructions) that will govern the use of
modern technologies (breast cameras, etc.) will make changes to existing legislation to avoid inconsistencies which exist
now in connection with the operation of the Law of Ukraine «On the National Police of Ukraine».
