ΕλληνικάCyber Law – Legal Procedures
Cyber Law constitutes a new field within the legal system that has necessarily developed with the increasing use of digital technologies and the Internet. It deals with the application and interpretation of the legal framework regarding digital communications, privacy protection on the Internet, electronic transactions, and other related issues.
This field was created to assist and ensure the protection of individuals, businesses, and organizations on the Internet from malicious actions, known as cyber-attacks, and thus help maintain order.
