An Analysis of Personal Data Protection Bill, 2018

Abstract

The new Indian Personal Data Security Act adopts and further strengthens several current EU transaction processing control standards and certain elements of regulatory standards in the U.S. model. Global corporations should therefore aim to address, concurrently and traditionally, in the interests of performance, the provisions of the current Indian Data Protection Legislation, the GDPR and other confidentiality regimes. This section explains the Personal Data Protection Bill endorsed by the BN Sai Krishna Committee in the sense of the increasing need for a collection of policies to ensure that citizens' privacy is protected and not compromised, particularly after the Supreme Court of India has established the right of privacy as a fundamental right. The article discusses the highlighting of the bill before critically reviewing it and concluding it with that with the incorporation of the bill in an age where identity theft are frequent.
