The research purpose of this article is to problematize the legal regulation of working with personal data and other confidential information in the context of large-scale digitalization. An attempt is made to systematize the main concepts used in covering the topic of information security, such as information, types of protected data, information leaks, types and channels of information leaks. Special attention is paid to the personal data security regime: the legal framework, features of sanctions, gaps and conflicts in the interaction of legislative acts are determined. The author concludes that there is insufficient and contradictory legal regulation of issues related to personal data and information leaks in Russian legislation.
