Modern technologies for technical follow-up of documents

The relevance of the study of modern document research technologies is determined by the growing pace of innovative and technical progress, which produces high-tech achievements that are used not only for rational purposes, but also for the purpose of high-quality falsification of documents to achieve illegitimate and selfish goals. The purpose of this article was to study the latest methods of document forgery and existing technologies for their detection with the aim of assessing the level of development of modern expert research in this field. In order to achieve the above-mentioned result, a complex methodological approach was used in the study of this topic, which consists in the consistent application of methods of scientific knowledge, analysis of the acquired knowledge, their systematization and generalization with the aim of building a system model of the modern process of technical documentation research, as well as the application of comparison and evaluation methods in order to identify weaknesses in the use of existing technologies, the method of scientific forecasting of development prospects in this field. As a result of the study, the general theoretical, methodological and procedural provisions governing the document examination process were highlighted, the known and most used methods of falsification of documents were defined, the methodology for establishing the characteristic features of various types of forgeries and the technical means used for their detection were studied, and the available in this field were outlined problems and prospects for overcoming them. The knowledge gained in this way logically contributes to the formation of fundamental information baggage, which should be used in expert work to achieve the most accurate and justified results. The conducted research has a high applied value, as it focuses on the most optimal and effective modern examination technologies in the field of document circulation, highlighting their characteristic features and advantages, emphasizing the growing need to use the latest technological advances in the examination of document
