Nowadays, information technology, mobile communications, and television are becoming increasingly important. Today, the Internet is not only a source of information, but also a universal medium for communication, entertainment and learning. The number of Internet users is growing every day. Due to the constant growth in the volume of information and coverage of new areas, an increase in the number of illegal materials is also recorded. In today's digital world, protecting children from the dangers of the Internet is becoming an important task. In general, the State is taking all necessary measures to counteract this. Nevertheless, realizing that the efforts of state structures alone cannot solve the problem of illegal acts on the Internet, the Ministry of Culture and Information of the Republic of Kazakhstan, which monitors compliance with the requirements of legislation in the field of mass media, offers an overview of available solutions for parents.
