A Technical Look At The Indian Personal Data Protection Bill

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

The Indian Personal Data Protection Bill 2019 provides a legal framework for protecting personal data. It is modeled after the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation(GDPR). We present a detailed description of the Bill, the differences with GDPR, the challenges and limitations in implementing it. We look at the technical aspects of the bill and suggest ways to address the different clauses of the bill. We mostly explore cryptographic solutions for implementing the bill. There are two broad outcomes of this study. Firstly, we show that better technical understanding of privacy is important to clearly define the clauses of the bill. Secondly, we also show how technical and legal solutions can be used together to enforce the bill.
