ILPF Conference 2002, Security v. Privacy

Subject: ILPF Conference 2002, September 18-19 - Featured Topics and
Speakers


Dear Colleague,

The Internet Law & Policy Forum is holding its annual conference on
the topic of Security v. Privacy on September 18-19, 2002 in Seattle,
Washington.  This conference will explore the synergies and
conflicts, both real and imagined, between these two important policy
objectives and the laws written to promote them.  On one hand,
privacy is a critical element of maintaining data integrity, which is
one key security issue. On the other hand, the governmental need to
find and stop lawbreakers is facilitated by the ready access to a
broad scope of information.  

The conference will have a privacy track and a security track, where
speakers will explore key issues and concerns in the respective
areas. Some of the topics covered in these panels include:  Privacy
Global Survey: Legislative Regimes and Cross-Cultural Dimensions;
Practicalities of Compliance with Law Enforcement Requests;
Identifying and Selecting Appropriate Authentication Options. 
Plenary sessions will cover topics from both perspectives.  

Among the globally recognized experts who will be speaking at the
conference are: Commissioner Orson Swindle of the US Federal Trade
Commission; Marc Rotenberg, Executive Director of EPIC; John Ryan,
Vice President & Associate General Counsel, Compliance and
Investigations at America Online Inc.; Albert Gidari, Entrepreneur in
Residence, Perkins Coie; Professor Michael Geist, University of
Ottawa; Stewart Baker of Steptoe & Johnson; Chris Kuner of Hunton &
Williams; Mary Wong, Senior Lecturer, Faculty of Law, National
University of Singapore; and Barbara Fox, Senior Architect of
Cryptography and Digital Rights Management at Microsoft Corporation
and a Senior Fellow at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard.

The Internet Law & Policy Forum is holding its annual conference on
the topic of Security v. Privacy, September 18-19, 2002 in Seattle,
Washington.  The events of September 11th have raised the stakes on
these two critical issues.  Many governments have passed new
legislation in efforts to increase security and stop terrorism.  Many
privacy advocates have criticized some of these new laws for their
negative effect on privacy.  This conference will explore the
synergies and conflicts, both real and imagined, between these two
important issues and the laws written to promote them.  The
conference will have a privacy track and a security track, where
speakers will explore key issues and concerns in the respective
areas. Some of the topics covered in these panels include:  Privacy
Global Survey: Legislative Regimes and Cross-Cultural Dimensions;
Practicalities of Compliance with Law Enforcement Requests;
Identifying and Selecting Appropriate Authentication Options.
