Abstract: The internet, apart from huge advantages, also has a number of well-known drawbacks, which deter the economic and scientific progress of the society. The most significant of these - high reliability of data transfer (an advantage), on the one hand, and poor information security (a drawback), on the other hand, - are caused by one and the same reason, namely, the use of packed-switched communications. We discuss the new global/regional information network TVnet, which does not use packed-switched communications. This allows providing for complete information security, while retaining high reliability of data transfer. The TVnet information network offers new services, which are not available in the internet.

Keywords: information networks; internet; business oriented services; information security; data retrieval speed; computer intelligence; personal computers; personal memory; protected PCs; unprotected PCs; cybercrime; business security; TVnet; data transfer reliability.
