Data boxes are currently a very popular discussion topic and this especially considering the communications between public administration and the private sector being done through them. Due to the fact that the data boxes have been introduced recently and that legislation allows exceptions for their use, a number of challenging issues arise in this respect and obstacles to reach the principal goal for which the data boxes have been introduced. Not only exceptions in the legislation but as well the low level of knowledge
in this field, on the part of the public-at-large as well as the users of data boxes themselves,
leads to a erroneous manipulation with data messages and thus creates difficulties which
can have dramatic consequences. The purpose of this article is to provide a broad overview about data boxes with an emphasis on related problems, especially in the field of public administration and to suggest possible solutions.
