Cybersecurity and Digital Sovereignty in Personal Data Protection

Abstract

With the increasing complexity of technology, cybersecurity requires an integrated and multidisciplinary approach. Although technology offers numerous opportunities, its rapid development has introduced increasingly invasive techniques that impact both the private and public spheres. Initially limited to information systems, these issues now affect fundamental rights, infrastructure security, and state sovereignty. In response to growing risks and complexity, broader and more focused legislative measures are needed. In this context, it is crucial to adopt a cybersecurity perspective that transcends the purely technical domain, engaging the legal and political discourse on digital sovereignty and data protection. The goal is to promote cybersecurity that ensures data and information security while fully respecting fundamental rights enshrined in higher and universally valid standards.
