Communications surveillance is now a global business. Over the past
three decades, law enforcement and national security agencies have
worked with the private sector to ensure that all new forms of
communications are capable of being monitored. A range of new
international legal agreements provide the foundation for this
activity.
Who are the key players in this new industry? What mechanisms are
being developed to build surveillance into the architecture of
communications? What forms of technology are being used to intercept
communications - and to resist interception?
This unique one-day conference will explore these technical and legal
questions, and provide a public forum for open discussion.
