According to the presented data, the draft law contains amendments to the Criminal Code, the Criminal Procedure Code, and the Code of Offenses. It introduces a definition of digital evidence and establishes the procedure for their collection, recording, storage, and use in criminal and administrative proceedings.
Particular attention in the document is given to the protection of citizens' rights. In particular, additional procedural guarantees are proposed when dealing with digital data related to the confidentiality of correspondence, personal data, and private life, as well as mechanisms for judicial oversight.
