Deputy Head of the Russian Presidential Administration Maxim Oreshkin believes that sovereignty over data in education is key.

Educational digital platforms in the future will make it possible to effectively build an individual trajectory of human development, based on data about his abilities and skills.

Maxim Oreshkin emphasized that if the data is not stored locally, then the information may become available to a third country, which can use it for its own purposes, for example, to lure talented people.

MOSCOW, October 10 - RIA Novosti. Educational platforms in the future will have a large amount of information, which is important to protect in order to prevent the outflow of talented youth, so sovereignty over data in education is key, says Deputy Head of the Russian Presidential Administration Maxim Oreshkin.

Speaking at the Global Digital Forum, Oreshkin said that in the future, educational digital platforms will make it possible to effectively build the entire trajectory of human development - from basic to vocational education. Including, based on data about a person, offering an individual development trajectory, individual tasks, and so on.

“At the same time, such a platform will have an insane amount of information about every person in the country, about his abilities, skills, characteristics, his strengths, his weaknesses. Therefore, sovereignty over data in education and development, of course, is key,” Oreshkin emphasized.

“If there is no platform solution of yours, created either by you or in partnership with a third country that is willing to share such sovereign solutions, if your data is not stored locally, all this information will be available to a third country that can use it for some of its own purposes. From security purposes and everything connected with this, to, for example, the purpose of finding the most talented children in schools, in higher education institutions in order to lure them and take them away from your country,” he added.
