The International Student Colloquium invited outstanding international speakers from South Korea, Hungary, and Indonesia. The material presented was extraordinarily useful and relevant to current technological developments. The first speaker is Prof. Park Jihyun from Youngsan University, South Korea, who talked about how technology can become a necessity for humans in today’s times such as all the conveniences of doing things without the need to meet people in person. For example, we can consult a doctor through the application, but what about the accountability of the data recorded in the application can be discriminated against for its safety. Prof. Dr. Fezer Tamas, Ph.D. delivered the second material. The professor from the School of Law, University of Debrecen, Hungary, discussed data protection and Cybersecurity Law in Hungary. Lastly, the presentation of material by Prof. Dr. Budi Agus Riswandi, SH, M.
