Abstract

Data protection is one of the most complex and debated issues of recent years, characterized by an application range so vast that it extends to all areas of human operations, also connecting with other needs of equal legal value contemplated in the legal system.

Among the various subjects that involve the protection and protection of personal data, there is cybersecurity which presents interesting points of contact with the world of privacy.
