Use of Open-Source Technologies in the Educational Environment of Higher Education Institutions

Abstract: The higher education sector is undergoing a time of extraordinary transition. Universities are adopting, or at least grappling with, plenty of new technology and teaching approaches, including a range of applications, portals, and remote teaching tools that support online and hybrid learning environments. The goal of this article is to examine cybersecurity of digital education in India, as well as the existing platforms on the industry for e-learning systems, of which the Moodle framework is the most popular. Finally, the authors make recommendations for using LMS MOODLE to organise students' self-study, as well as protecting participants' individual data and ensuring cyber security within the system. .
