Abstract
The rise of global cloud computing has introduced significant challenges in securing data privacy, particularly in cross-border data flows. With multiple jurisdictions involved, the risk of data breaches, unauthorized surveillance, and legal ambiguity increases. This paper examines the data privacy vulnerabilities in cross-border cloud storage systems, evaluates current international cyber law frameworks, and analyzes how these laws address or fail to address key data protection issues. Using a comparative analysis of legal regimes including the EU GDPR, US CLOUD Act, and regional cybersecurity laws, the paper underscores regulatory fragmentation and suggests a harmonized international legal architecture to mitigate privacy risks. The findings highlight the urgent need for consensus on global data governance to ensure robust, enforceable privacy standards.
