With the rapid advancement in technology and the increasing reliance of institutions on digital platforms for transactions and operations, dealing with cybercrime and data protection has become a legal necessity—particularly under Law No. 63 of 2015 on Combating Information Technology Crimes, and in anticipation of an upcoming Personal Data Protection Law in Kuwait.
