Risiken der Überwachung
Sehr interessantes Papier: Risking Communications Security: Potential Hazards of the ‘Protect America Act’ (pdf 92kb) - und sei es nur um ein wenig besser die technischen Probleme der Überwachungsmaßnahmen zu verstehen.
In this paper we discuss potential risks in building a surveillance system to satisfy the Protect America Act. We provide background on FISA, and then discuss a likely surveillance architecture. We next discuss Call Detail Records and determining location of international Internet traffic.
We see three serious security risks that have not been adequately addressed (or perhaps not even addressed at all): the danger that the system can be exploited by unauthorized users, the danger of criminal misuse by a trusted insider, and the danger of misuse by the U.S. government.
