ENCRYPTION LAW IN ISRAEL

Encryption is an important issue in Israel because of security concerns and the need to keep communications private, especially bearing in mind Israel’s many skirmishes
with regional alien forces. Encryption is the taking of data and making it unintelligible by converting it into a form called a ciphertex to keep unauthorized persons from seeing it. Conversely, decryption is the process of putting the encrypted data back into its original form, so it can be understood. Use of Encryption, or as the law phrases it, Encryption Items in Israel is controlled under the Law Governing the Control of Commodities and Services - 1957 (5717) and the Order Regarding the Engagement in Encryption Items - 1974 (5734).

NJ Supreme Court Says Subpoena Needed for Internet Records

Wednesday, April 23, 2008

The New Jersey Supreme Court has given a huge victory to Internet privacy advocates by ruling that the Government needs a valid subpoena before it can get private user information from an Internet Service Provider (”ISP?). The case was, State of New Jersey v. Shirley Reid (A-105-06), and was argued October 22, 2007 and decided April 21, 2008. The case came up on appeal and was argued as an amicus brief with the help of the American Civil Liberties Union, Electronic Frontier Foundation and the Electronic Privacy Information Center, among other groups that filed friend-of-the-court briefs in the controversy. The victors claim it is the first ruling in the U.S. to recognize a reasonable expectation of privacy for Internet users.

THE BURDENSOME COSTS OF CUSTOMER JUSTICE

Wednesday, April 16, 2008

Providing timely, reassuring and comprehensive customer service has been an axiom of good business for as long as people have been doing business.

Besides the direct monetary losses that come with customer lawsuits, businesses typically end up having to belatedly invest in employee training, security and information systems upgrades, all the while trying to stem what often turns out to be a customer exodus.

CALIFORNIA’S FRAMEWORK TO COMBAT INTERNET INVESTMENT FRAUD

California has taken a progressive stance in preventing and prosecuting Internet investment fraud. California state authorities have worked with other states through the aegis of the North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA) since 1994.
