Deputy Bolot Saginayev emphasized that with the growth of electronic services, the state is accumulating more and more information about citizens. In this regard, he asked whether the state agency can guarantee the protection of data from illegal use and leaks.
In response, Kylimbek Madalbekov stated that the agency is constantly working in this direction and monitors compliance with legislation in the field of personal data protection. He added that there are many information systems in the country, both public and private. The agency checks whether the owners of these systems comply with the established data protection requirements.
Nevertheless, the deputy director noted that no government in the world can provide an absolute guarantee of security. According to him, in international practice, there are no information systems that are 100% secure. The maximum level of protection usually ranges from 99.5% to 99.7%.
“Therefore, it is impossible for any government system in the world to guarantee that leaks will not occur anywhere and at any time,” concluded Kylimbek Madalbekov.
As a reminder, today the Committee of the Jogorku Kenesh on Science, Education, Innovative Development, and Information Technologies is hearing information about the work of the State Agency for Personal Data Protection.
