Abstract

EN Information of a personal character constitutes a special category of data used by the state and its bodies in the performance of public tasks. Difficulties in identifying risks and challenges are connected, inter alia, with the fact that the material scope of the definition of personal data is not a standing concept. It cannot be determined in advance whether a given category of information will be of a personal character or not. These risks are further aggravated when Big Data tools are used, which facilitate the effective analysis of huge volumes of data, linking information with different sources of origin, and the indirect identification of data subjects. In addition to the problems resulting from the nature of personal data, there is a further complicated problem resulting from the hybrid nature of legal regulations. This is due to the fact that some processes involving personal data processing are within the Community regime of personal data protection, while some others, as activities implemented as national security tasks, are excluded completely from the European regime. The purpose of this article is to identify the threats and problems in these conditions and the related implications for state security.
