Abstract
-
As we move into a more digitized society, the collection and use of data continues to increase. This influx in data, partnered
with challenges complying with data protection and privacy regulations and the absence of a comprehensive global data
protection and privacy strategy, has contributed to data breaches and data misusage. In order to reduce these incidents,
updates must be made to existing regulations and included in future regulations. A global agency should also be created to
identify the main data protection and privacy objectives to develop a comprehensive strategy and oversee data protection
and privacy. Our paper presents an overview of existing data protection and privacy regulations, the challenges of complying
with the regulations, and recommendations to achieve long-term data protect and privacy.
