The study describes the aspects of human rights observance in the context of information technology. The relevance of the chosen topic is confirmed by the fact that today, the protection of human rights and freedoms is under threat because they are subject to information influences. Against the backdrop of the merger of technology and social life, a pattern has been identified. The importance of modernising the way of thinking about human rights has become apparent. The study aims to examine innovative tools and mechanisms for protecting human rights from the negative impact of information technology, the current state of the problem, and its further development. This systematic review followed the PRISMA guidelines for a systematic analysis of scientific literature focused on human rights protection in the context of information technology development. The search was conducted in databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, IEEE Xplore, and SpringerLink, among peer-reviewed publications from 2010 to 2024. Applying inclusion and exclusion criteria resulted in selecting the 47 most relevant publications for further analysis. The article examines the issues of adaptation and integration of the achievements of technocrats' progress. The highly specialised consequences of innovation activities are associated with several risks to fundamental human rights, have drawbacks in terms of ethical and moral significance, and require specific legal provisions. Considering the evolution of rights in general, the author examines the instruments for ensuring rights and freedoms that predictably anticipate the need for guarantees and protection. In particular, the creation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) within the EU, the expansion of the network of cybersecurity structures, and the study of damage in the information space. The conclusions provide prospects for the future development of human rights in the information space.
