BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 1. Protecting the
processes taking place on digital platforms from manipulations is
important, Azerbaijan's Deputy Minister of Digital Development and
Transport Samaddin Asadov said at the 3rd Forum on "Public
processes in the media sphere" organized by the Media Development
Agency of Azerbaijan (MEDIA) in Baku, Trend reports.
According to him, the concept of media isn't limited to news
production, but also encompasses the transmission of information in
a safe and secure environment.
"At the same time, ensuring the technological sovereignty of
platforms is a priority. An action plan for 2026–2028 has been
adopted. As a result of the implementation of this plan, digital
transformation in the country will be established as a single
system.
Modern challenges are not limited to technological solutions.
Cooperation and responsibility are the main conditions for the
formation of a healthy information environment. We see the media as
the main partner in this process," he emphasized.
According to the deputy minister, the collection and
dissemination of information has accelerated in modern times.
"Artificial intelligence tools facilitate the processing of
large volumes of data and allow for more accurate analysis. The
digital environment plays an important role in the role of a bridge
between the media and the reader. Against the background of these
changes, digital development in the country has entered a new
milestone.
The transition from separate projects to a unified, proactive
system has begun. The reforms implemented in this area actually
serve to ensure the future of the country. Three main directions
are of particular importance for the construction of the digital
highway:
Infrastructure - as the backbone of digital media;
Artificial intelligence and data;
Cyber resilience and information security".
