Protection of Personal Data in Cyberspace

Georgian legislation does not regulate disputes arising in cyberspace, does not define the obligations and set the necessary regulations for persons and/or firms on how to protect the personal data.
Thesis reviews the personal data protection regulations in United States of America, with which the state is trying to thoroughly protect the personal data of individuals in cyberspace and introduce you to the famous and important court cases and decisions.
The paper also reviews the regulations throughout the European Union, such as General Data Protection Regulation and Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data. Different states inside the EU have different sets of rules regarding the personal data protection.
The goal of my thesis is to acquire the knowledge about the situation around the data protection in technologically and legislatively advanced countries. Is it possible to repeat the same in Georgia? Of course, it is impossible to blindly copy the regulations, disregarding the reality and situation in the specific countries. That is why it is important to first study and analyze them and then think about converting in Georgian legislation.
