An overview of the international practice of working with state secrets

DOI: 10.33917/mic-2.121.2025.40-46

In this article, the author has considered in detail the existing problems in the experience of applying legislation in the field of protection of state secrets by foreign states. Information leaks leaked to the press during the period of the special military operation in Ukraine, that is, in 2022–2024, related to various elements of espionage, disclosures, leaks, illegal storage of classified information, everything that is somehow related to the processing of information constituting a state secret, have been subjected to a detailed study. Based on the typical real-life cases selected on the World Wide Web, appropriate conclusions were drawn, and in the final part, based on the observations developed, new views were proposed on the mechanisms for evaluating this information in domestic practice, which, according to the performer of the text, would allow, if not to relieve social tension in the circles of operators of classified information, then at least try to overcome some of the created redundancy. measures to protect such information, as well as to reduce possible cases of violations of its processing requirements in the future.

System of sources of intellectual property rights as a key tool for protecting intellectual property and stimulating innovation and the development of the global economy

DOI: 10.33917/mic-2.121.2025.24-39

This article examines the methodological aspects of the formation of a system of sources of intellectual property (IP) law as a key tool for protecting intellectual property and stimulating innovation in modern conditions.

It is determined that the practice of the economic judicial Board of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation in trademark protection cases should be improved, including with regard to formal requirements for the preparation and consideration of court cases. It is shown that in modern legal practice, trademarks are considered only as legal instruments with which copyright holders have the right to prevent the production and sale of identical or confusingly similar products by opponents. The use of existing means to protect the interests of copyright holders within the framework of the “fuzzy” concept of trademarks allows all business entities and authorities to take a fresh look at trademarks: not only as a legal instrument, but also as an organizational and economic instrument. Intellectual property, as an intangible asset with commercial value, like any object of copyright ownership, can be seriously affected by the actions of third parties. Such damage must be compensated by the copyright holder in court. Thus, violators may be held civilly or criminally liable for the illegal use of such trademarks or service marks. The trademark owner has the right to demand compensation for damages and has the right to publish the court’s decision in the mass media. It should also be noted that trademarks and service marks are a means of personalizing goods and their manufacturers. Trademarks and service marks have different concepts, functions, and types. The legislation of the Russian Federation provides for civil or criminal liability for illegal use. It is shown that the system of sources of intellectual property rights is complex and multilevel.

Identification, identification of falsification and counterfeiting as tools to ensure the economic security of production and trade by the 43rd commodity group of the EAEU customs code of foreign economic activity

DOI: 10.33917/mic-1.120.2025.56-73

This article examines the organizational and economic aspects of identification, identification of falsification and counterfeiting as tools to ensure the economic security of production and trade of 43 commodity groups of the EAEU Customs Union (fur goods) in modern conditions. An analysis of the current situation shows that ensuring the economic security of the fur trade is not balanced in the Russian Federation and the state may lose the furring skills of industry operators, as well as the technological culture of manufacturing and wearing natural furs.

The state needs to create further conditions for the development of the domestic fur industry, ensuring economic security, countering low-quality counterfeit imports of fur products, which unscrupulous sellers sell, posing as Russian goods, and introduce protectionist measures to protect and support Russian producers.

Methodological approaches to determining the level of shadow economy in forestry

DOI: 10.33917/mic-1.120.2025.44-55

Illegal deforestation is a consequence of socio-economic relations, especially in regions where logging is the main source of income. Forests in such regions are perceived only as raw materials, which leads to negative consequences leading to the loss of national wealth. Specific assessment methods for different industries and sectors of the economy lead to a lack of a unified approach, which creates difficulties in analyzing and combating the shadow economy. The level of criminalization in the field of logging can be assessed by various methods. The authors have modernized and changed the formulas for assessing the level of criminalization of forestry to meet modern realities with a significant reduction in error.

Application of the Six Sigma concept in the enterprise’s economic security management system

DOI: 10.33917/mic-1.120.2025.29-43

The article reveals and classifies such concepts as economic security of an enterprise, a crisis management. The main tools for diagnosing crisis phenomena are described in order to identify them early and reduce the impact on the company’s business activities. Special attention is paid to the description and the possibility of applying the Six Sigma concept for crisis management at the process level. Using the example of an enterprise manufacturing equipment for the electric power industry, the application of the Six Sigma concept in the procurement management process is considered. The results of calculating the process quality indicator (σ) are presented, measures for its optimization are proposed, and the economic efficiency of implementing measures is determined.

Compliance with the principle of prudence when conducting compliance procedures in the tax sphere

DOI: 10.33917/mic-1.120.2025.18-28

The freedom of economic activity of enterprises is connected not only with their independence in choosing the sphere of application of forces and means, but also with risks in carrying out entrepreneurial activities. Managing in conditions of uncertainty involves risks, of which we will consider tax risks. The state makes it the duty of enterprises to be attentive to their counterparties. You earn and pay taxes, not forgetting about society. Taxpayers are needed to keep the state machine running.

Tax compliance, as a system of organizational and legal measures aimed at complying with the requirements of tax legislation, acts as an integrative component of tax and management policy, applicable both at the state level and at the level of specific organizations.

Prudence, which implies some caution in making decisions, prevents the occurrence of factors that can later be interpreted by tax inspectors against the benefit of the audited.

Economic security and Technological sovereignty in modern industrial policy

DOI: 10.33917/mic-6.119.2024.94-103

The article examines the global trend of «reloading» national industrial strategies in the context of recent geopolitical and geoeconomic challenges. We describe the countries’ transition from priorities of economic efficiency to dominant priorities of economic security and their course towards achieving technological sovereignty (self-sufficiency) as its central component. We analyze this course in the leading world economies (EU, USA, China), as well as the risks for its successful implementation. Special attention is paid to a similar Russian course – the only alternative under the sanctions pressure. We find that in all types of economies, including Russia, achieving technological sovereignty may be a more difficult task than governments expect, and that the accumulation of inefficiencies from fragmentation of the global economy into blocs will eventually force countries to return to greater economic openness.
