Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is an impetus for digitalization and informatization of the entire state system and criminal justice, in particular. State authorities urgently had to switch to digitalization, increasing the electronic document flow. However, civil servants faced many challenges. The legislation was not ready for such force majeure circumstances. The issue of the safety of storing personal information during the transition to digitalization of the criminal process remains problematic. Currently, an urgent need has arisen, based on the experience gained and the experience of foreign countries, in the creation of an effective, systematic legislative framework for digitalization, the introduction of innovative technologies at all stages of the criminal process. Despite the conservatism of the Russian criminal process, today one cannot do without modern achievements of scientific technology, with the help of which it is necessary to develop the possibility of remote production of investigative actions, while observing the guarantees of the rights of participants in criminal proceedings. Avoiding the huge flow of computerized information in the production of criminal cases, and at the same time ensuring the transparency of the criminal process, will help the creation of a single database of criminal cases on the blockchain principle.
