Abstract

Along with the advancement in modern technology, the dependency of people on technology increased. Along with the passage of time, technology became so advanced that crimes entered the realm of cybercrimes. The article highlights the different types of data along with the basic criterion of data protection. This article refers to the critical analysis of global legislations of different states on data protection, how they intend to protect data, how they deal with the crimes such as theft, breach and misuse, and the loopholes in the legislation. All legislations related to data and their methods to tackle the data breach are endorsed, and their loopholes have been highlighted. Though every state has enacted legislation to protect data at its best, a global law is needed to protect data at the macro level. These crimes affect the individuals in the territory of a state but also make the international community vulnerable. There is a need to be proper provisions and clearly stating the jurisdiction and scope of these legislations. The blockchain system is an emerging technology system and can be used effectively to achieve the goal. Data protection is the right of every individual, and it should be preserved.
