/ The Organising Committee
Global Networks are increasingly evolving and lead to new forms of business configurations, of Global Electronic Commerce and of organisation of public services. However, in order to make good use of the opportunities offered by the new Global Information Infrastructure (GII), a secure and trustworthy environment is needed, which takes also into account social and legal values. The working conference will focus on legal, social, technical and organisational aspects of information infrastructures and of new applications particularly in the area of Electronic Commerce and Public Administration. It aims at analysing how to prevent emerging threats to IT systems security, risks to people, organisations and society as a whole.
Relevant topics include, but are not limited to the following:
Avoiding Misuse by Digital Signature Schemes:
- Legal Initiatives and Law Enforcement Implications
- Implementation of Pseudonyms
- Public Key Infrastructures: Practical Implementaions, Problems and Implications
- TTP Certification / Regulation
- Liability of TTPs
Protection of Privacy and Confidentiality in the GII:
- IT Misuse and Risks
- Confidentiality vs. Identification of Communication Partners
- Anonymity: A right to ?, Legislation, Implications (e.g., potential misuse by criminals)
- Technical solutions for Limiting Risks to Users: Privacy Enhancing Technologies
- State Regulations vs. Self-Regulation
- Cryptographic Policies and Crypto Debate
