Access to government information faces many roadblocks in developing and emerging economies due to lack of appropriate legal frameworks and other requisite information laws. However, there is hope that many countries are now recognizing the importance of providing access to public information resources. Digital Access and E-Government: Perspectives from Developing and Emerging Countries explores the relationships that exist between access to information laws and e-government. It shares the strategies used in encouraging access to information in a variety of jurisdictions and environments, to be of use to e-government designers and practitioners, policymakers, and university professors.

The ongoing growth of information and communication technology is a high priority for any developing country. These advances help progress with different sectors of socio-economic development within these countries, and strengthens our global economy as a whole. Securing Government Information and Data in Developing Countries provides an informative examination of the latest strategies and methods for protecting government information and data within developing countries. Presenting dynamic topics such as security-critical systems, watermarking authentication, hybrid biometrics, and e-voting systems, this publication is an ideal reference source for practitioners, academicians, students, and researchers who are interested in the emerging trends of data security for governments.
