TAPESCRIPT
- Today we are going to check students’ ideas about Information 
Security and find out whether they know how to avoid information 
attacks. So, now we are in front of the Uzbekistan National University. 
Hi, can you answer a couple of questions, please? It’s like a survey.
- Ok.
- Will you introduce yourself, please?
- I’m Shuhrat Jalilov, a second year student of this University.
- Thank you, er, the question is How do you understand Ideological 
Pressure?
- Er, hmm, let me think... oh, maybe someone tries to make us follow 
his/her ideas oh, maybe religion, or they may try to persuade us to buy 
their product, not letting us think properly. Pressure maybe not direct,

---

it can be done by supporting financially. It may have a philosophical 
impact, making you believe that it is the right way. It is usually with 
purpose, like political maybe.
- How can we protect our youth from Ideological Pressures?
- Hmmm, first of all the adults who teach him, I mean parents, 
teachers should know which is the right way, which is not. Some people 
say that we should protect our youth from ideological pressures. But I 
think differently, if a person has not immunity to be protected against 
strange ideologies he can be influenced no matter how old he is. You 
remember some adults were affected by religious extremism, terrorism 
and other hostile ideologies. We should have immune tolerance against 
such er such lets say attacks. Parents should know whom their children 
communicate via social sites.
Now we are in front of Tashkent Islamic University.
Hi, could you spare your precious time for giving an answer to a 
couple of questions, please? It is like a survey.
- Ok, with pleasure.
- What is your name and specialty?
- Oybek Halilov, a first year student of Informatics and Information 
Technology Faculty.
- How do you understand Ideological Pressure?
- Oh, it has ending “logos” it means subject, so it is a subject which 
studies ideas. As for the pressure... I know there is a “high blood 
pressure”, (ha ha), oh here - dictionary says - “the use of persuasion 
or intimidation to make someone do something”, ahh, it is like making 
people follow one’s ideas. Err, maybe, like forcing someone to accept 
one’s religion or tradition or, maybe, a life style. I have been wamed 
against missionary activities, religious extremism, fundamentalism ideas 
and how they work in our environment.
- How can we protect our youth from Ideological Pressures?
- 1 think, we have only one way to protect them. It is paying attention 
to their spirituality seriously. Educational system at secondary schools, 
colleges, lyceums and high schools must be perfect from spiritual point 
of view. We should be attentive to secondary school students because 
they just begin to be independent from constant care and control of 
teachers and parents. And ‘ideological 
group of society. If we choose this way,
