Аннотация
This article examines the current state of digital transformation in public administration in Uzbekistan, as well as its achievements and challenges. Special attention has been paid to the problem of the digital divide between urban and rural areas, which has not been adequately addressed in previous research on Uzbekistan. Key barriers to digitalization, including lack of infrastructure and low levels of digital literacy, have been identified. Threats to cybersecurity have also been mentioned. Possible solutions to these problems, such as the development of digital infrastructure and the strengthening of data protection measures, have been discussed.
