Abstract
The article examines some features of the modern digital economy not from the point of view of its level of development, but rather as a "habitat" of national economies of various countries of the world. The article shows that the development of the digital economy in the world and in individual countries in the XXI century has received a huge spread and equally huge opportunities to influence internal processes in various countries. Moreover, this impact, being mainly positive, has a number of negative consequences for various countries. The author substantiates the point of view that today the "digital divide" is growing in the digital segment of the world economy, which negatively affects the sustainability of socio-economic development of a number of countries. In addition, the risks in the field of national security are also increasing. At the same time, the threats and risks to national security associated with digitalization and the possibilities of external control over the information and digital space of national states in general are increasing, as are the digital opportunities to realize these threats to one degree or another. Therefore, the author's idea is the need for supranational regulation of digitalization processes.
