Book excerpt: Excerpt from Network Wiretapping Capabilities: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Telecommunications and Finance of the Committee on Energy and Commerce, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session, September 13, 1994 Then, in 1967, the Supreme Court finally adopted Justice Brandeis dissenting view, overruled Olmstead, and held that an eavesdropping does amount to a "search or seizure" and thus was protected by the Constitution. Just 1 year later, Congress again responded by passing the 1968 Wiretap Act. This law makes wiretaps lawful by setting up a judicial process that law enforcement must go through to get a court-ordered wiretap. But the story does not end there. Congress again responded to changes in computer and in communications technology by passing the "Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986." This law, which was sponsored by Senator Leahy and Congressman Edwards, amended the 1968 Wiretap Act by protecting a new class of electronic communications, defined broadly to include everything from e-mail to databases. That legislation reflected an ongoing effort to update and clarify Federal wiretap laws, as the Senate committee put it, "in light of dramatic changes in new computer and telecommunications technologies." Well, today we are back at the task of updating and clarifying our wiretap law again. This time, the changes in computer and telecommunications technology are not just dramatic; they are overwhelming. The growth of digital communications over the past 8 years, the spread of fiber deeper into the local phone network, the spread and growth of wireless services - all of these developments converge to set the stage for today's hearing. The Federal Bureau of Investigation says that as these advanced technologies get deployed, that the technology should not, in essence, repeal or modify the 1968 Wiretap Act. Instead, the Bureau argues we must update and clarify our laws so that their ability to conduct wiretaps is maintained - not expanded and not diminished - just maintained. Therefore, as I see it, the challenge before the subcommittee is to listen to the FBI and to local law enforcement, who are on the front lines battling crime; and then to listen to the telecommunications industry, which is in the forefront of trying to develop new telecommunications equipment and services. And then to try to reconcile these views, working with the Judiciary Committee, to come up with a policy that, one, protects the privacy interests of our citizens; two, is mindful of the limited financial resources of taxpayers or ratepayers; three, meets the legitimate needs of law enforcement; and four, does not unduly interfere with our telecommunications industry, which is racing to the future with advances in communications technology. I think the bill introduced by Congressmen Edwards and Hyde represents great progress in meeting these criteria, and they and their staffs should be commended for the substantial effort it took to make that progress. But clearly more work needs to be done. I look forward to the hearing, as I am sure all the rest of the members do, so that we can assist in clarifying and crafting a workable solution to this genuine problem.

Download or read book Surveillance Or Security written by Susan Eva Landau and published by . This book was released on 2011-01-28 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital communications are the lifeblood of modern society. We "meet up" online, tweet our reactions millions of times a day, connect through social networking rather than in person. Large portions of business and commerce have moved to the Web, and much of our critical infrastructure, including the electric power grid, is controlled online. This reliance on information systems leaves us highly exposed and vulnerable to cyberattack. Despite this, U.S. law enforcement and national security policy remain firmly focused on wiretapping and surveillance. But, as cybersecurity expert Susan Landau argues in Surveillance or Security?, the old surveillance paradigms do not easily fit the new technologies. By embedding eavesdropping mechanisms into communication technology itself, we are building tools that could be turned against us and opting for short-term security and creating dangerous long-term risks.How can we get communications security right? Landau offers a set of principles to govern wiretapping policy that will allow us to protect our national security as well as our freedom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A penetrating and insightful study of privacy and security in telecommunications for a post-9/11, post-Patriot Act world. Telecommunication has never been perfectly secure. The Cold War culture of recording devices in telephone receivers and bugged embassy offices has been succeeded by a post-9/11 world of NSA wiretaps and demands for data retention. Although the 1990s battle for individual and commercial freedom to use cryptography was won, growth in the use of cryptography has been slow. Meanwhile, regulations requiring that the computer and communication industries build spying into their systems for government convenience have increased rapidly. The application of the 1994 Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act has expanded beyond the intent of Congress to apply to voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and other modern data services; attempts are being made to require ISPs to retain their data for years in case the government wants it; and data mining techniques developed for commercial marketing applications are being applied to widespread surveillance of the population. In Privacy on the Line, Whitfield Diffie and Susan Landau strip away the hype surrounding the policy debate over privacy to examine the national security, law enforcement, commercial, and civil liberties issues. They discuss the social function of privacy, how it underlies a democratic society, and what happens when it is lost. This updated and expanded edition revises their original—and prescient—discussions of both policy and technology in light of recent controversies over NSA spying and other government threats to communications privacy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a holistic view of the geopolitics of cyberspace that have arisen over the past decade, utilizing recent events to explain the international security dimension of cyber threat and vulnerability, and to document the challenges of controlling information resources and protecting computer systems. How are the evolving cases of cyber attack and breach as well as the actions of government and corporations shaping how cyberspace is governed? What object lessons are there in security cases such as those involving Wikileaks and the Snowden affair? An essential read for practitioners, scholars, and students of international affairs and security, this book examines the widely pervasive and enormously effective nature of cyber threats today, explaining why cyber attacks happen, how they matter, and how they may be managed. The book addresses a chronology of events starting in 2005 to comprehensively explain the international security dimension of cyber threat and vulnerability. It begins with an explanation of contemporary information technology, including the economics of contemporary cloud, mobile, and control systems software as well as how computing and networking—principally the Internet—are interwoven in the concept of cyberspace. Author Chris Bronk, PhD, then documents the national struggles with controlling information resources and protecting computer systems. The book considers major security cases such as Wikileaks, Stuxnet, the cyber attack on Estonia, Shamoon, and the recent exploits of the Syrian Electronic Army. Readers will understand how cyber security in the 21st century is far more than a military or defense issue, but is a critical matter of international law, diplomacy, commerce, and civil society as well.

Download or read book Regulation and the Performance of Communication and Information Networks written by Gerald R. Faulhaber and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Due to their economic characteristics and also to their consequences on many aspects of collective life, information networks have always been at the edge of regulatory innovations and at the center of policy debates. The contributors of this volume combine long term visions of the factors determining regulatory policies with up-to-date analyses of technicalities to be dealt with, to provide the reader with an extended understanding of the issues and constraints shaping the future of digital networks.' Eric Brousseau, Université Paris-Dauphine, France and the European University Institute, Italy Digital markets worldwide are in rapid flux. The Internet and World Wide Web have traditionally evolved in a largely deregulated environment, but recently governments have shown great interest in this rapidly developing sector and are imposing regulations for a variety of reasons that are changing the shape of these industries. This book explores why the industrial organization of broadband ISPs, Internet backbone providers and content/application providers are in such turmoil. The expert contributors straddle the turbulent past of the telecoms sector and also contribute to its exciting though unpredictable future via positive analysis of past communications policies, which is then utilized to deduce lessons to guide future policy making decisions. It is illustrated that broadband ISPs no longer simply provide a conduit for service delivery; they are also involved in producing content and transaction services themselves, in competition with content and delivery providers. The blurring of the traditional lines between these three sectors, as each enters into the others' markets, is highlighted. The conclusion is that we are witnessing the emergence of powerful, competing platforms, linked in complex ways that challenge traditional economic analyses. Exploring governance issues, regulation and investment, next-generation service markets and wireless communication, this book will prove a fascinating and illuminating read for scholars, researchers, post-graduate students and policymakers with an interest in ICT, technology and innovation, economics and industrial organization.

Download or read book The Listeners written by Brian Hochman and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They’ve been listening for longer than you think. A new history reveals how—and why. Wiretapping is nearly as old as electronic communications. Telegraph operators intercepted enemy messages during the Civil War. Law enforcement agencies were listening to private telephone calls as early as 1895. Communications firms have assisted government eavesdropping programs since the early twentieth century—and they have spied on their own customers too. Such breaches of privacy once provoked outrage, but today most Americans have resigned themselves to constant electronic monitoring. How did we get from there to here? In The Listeners, Brian Hochman shows how the wiretap evolved from a specialized intelligence-gathering tool to a mundane fact of life. He explores the origins of wiretapping in military campaigns and criminal confidence games and tracks the use of telephone taps in the US government’s wars on alcohol, communism, terrorism, and crime. While high-profile eavesdropping scandals fueled public debates about national security, crime control, and the rights and liberties of individuals, wiretapping became a routine surveillance tactic for private businesses and police agencies alike. From wayward lovers to foreign spies, from private detectives to public officials, and from the silver screen to the Supreme Court, The Listeners traces the long and surprising history of wiretapping and electronic eavesdropping in the United States. Along the way, Brian Hochman considers how earlier generations of Americans confronted threats to privacy that now seem more urgent than ever.
