I. Introduction
Over the past ten years, India's digital economy has grown
exponentially thanks to the quick uptake of digital services,
online shopping, and data-driven technologies. Concerns about
cybersecurity and privacy protection have taken center stage in
regulatory policy due to the growing amounts of personal data
moving through digital networks.
The most extensive legislative framework in India pertaining to
the gathering, handling, and safeguarding of personal data is the
Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act). The
regulatory environment is currently shifting toward active
enforcement, whereas organizations first viewed the legislation as
a compliance planning exercise.
