Cybersecurity Law

Digital transformation has become a significant part of the lives of individuals and organizations, bringing new legal challenges in its wake. Cybersecurity Law is a comprehensive legal field developed to ensure the security of individuals, companies, and public institutions in the digital world, protect information systems, and implement legal measures against cyber threats.

At CEKA Law & Consultancy, our team specializes in cybersecurity and information technology law, providing comprehensive and professional services to our clients.

What is Cybersecurity Law?

Cybersecurity Law regulates the secure use of information technologies and digital communication tools. It directly addresses issues such as cyberattacks, data breaches, digital crimes, and personal data protection.

The dynamic nature of the digital world has increased the need for a strong legal infrastructure in cybersecurity. This legal field aims both to protect individual rights and to regulate the legal obligations of companies and institutions.

Key Areas of Cybersecurity Law

1. Personal Data Protection
   Personal data has become one of the most valuable assets in the digital world, making legal regulations crucial.

   • Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data (KVKK): Regulates the processing, storage, and sharing of personal data in Turkey.

   • General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR): Sets personal data protection standards in the European Union.

   CEKA Law manages KVKK compliance processes, develops data protection policies for companies, and provides consultancy to prevent potential violations.

   • Data theft,

   • Phishing attacks,

   • Digital fraud and scams,

   • Ransomware attacks.
