Protection of confidential information in the civil process

This article discusses the transition to the digital era of the information society, which provides for the creation and development of legal regulation. It is also worth noting that it refers to the creation and application of new technologies, which in turn require changes in the norms of substantive and procedural law. A study was conducted on the unresolved problems associated with the already established traditional procedural relations, as well as the fact that the current legislation does not always meet the needs and realities existing in society. As a result, we carried out an analysis of the norms of civil procedural law, which provide for the procedure for obtaining and using confidential information provided in many institutions of civil procedure. First of all, we are talking about the principles of civil proceedings, for example, the principles of publicity and competition.
