This book provides a comprehensive, practical, and implementation-oriented guide to the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. It is specifically crafted for students of Computer Science and engineering disciplines, aiming to translate legal principles into tangible engineering practices.


Philosophy

The core philosophy of this book is "Privacy Engineering in Practice." I believe that data protection is not just a legal or compliance hurdle but a fundamental aspect of quality software engineering. In an era where technology is deeply intertwined with human lives, engineers and developers bear the responsibility to build systems that are not only functional and efficient but also ethical and trustworthy. This book moves beyond mere interpretation of the law to focus on its application, treating the DPDP Act as a set of design requirements for modern, robust, and user-centric systems.


Key Features

1. Globally Relevant: While centered on India's DPDP Act, it constantly draws parallels with the GDPR and other international privacy regulations, making the concepts and skills universally applicable.
2. Beginner to Advanced Spectrum: The initial chapters establish the fundamentals in simple terms, while later chapters explore advanced topics like Privacy by Design, Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs), and the impact of AI/ML, catering to both B.Tech and M.Tech students.
3. DIY Capstone Project: The final chapter guides the reader step-by-step through building a working "Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) Management Portal," complete with source code and deployment instructions.
4. Rich with Case Studies: Features case studies on e-commerce platforms, social media apps, and healthcare services to show how the Act applies in different business contexts.
5. Clarity and Simplicity: Complex legal and technical concepts are broken down into simple, easy-to-understand language, making the book highly accessible.
