Abstract

Recent growth of the information and communication technologies (ICT) created enormous opportunities for the economic and technical growth. However, they also opened the Pandora’s box of cybercrime, stealing personal information and identity, spying on people’s working and private lives as well as other related issues. Internet of Things (IoT) that combines a myriad of devices connected together for a two-way flow of information represents another important challenge, since it collects and stores zillions of personal data that can be abused by the third parties. Our paper analyses the recent developments of IoT in the light of data protection and tackling cybercrime. We show that since the concept is relatively young, very few legislative norms exist for its regulation and persecution of violators. It is also clear that new laws and rules should be introduced but the fragile balance between personal data protection and total “Big Brother-like” control from the law enforcement agencies and the governments should be carefully maintained and secured.
