International Standards and Mechanisms for Obtaining Data Stored in Cloud Technologies as Evidence

This article examines international standards and mechanisms for obtaining datastored in cloud technologies as legal evidence. In an era of rapid development of digital technologies, data stored in cloud services is becoming increasingly important in investigating crimes and resolving legal disputes. The study attempted to comprehensively study the legal framework, technical mechanisms, international cooperation standards, and practical difficulties in obtaining cloud data as evidence. The article analyzed standards developed by international organizations such as the European Union, the United States, and the UN, as well as national legislation and policies of cloud providers in different countries. As a result of the study, recommendations were developed to create a single international mechanism for obtaining cloud data as evidence, harmonize legal and technical standards, and strengthen cooperation between states. These recommendations provide an opportunity for law enforcement agencies, the judiciary, and legislators to improve the process of obtaining cloud data as evidence.
