Dennis Redeker | 22-09-22 | 12:49 Human rights & privacy | Security & crime | Technical & operational issues Quantum technology, including quantum cryptography, might upend the current system of (asymmetric) encryption including on the protocol level (if it ever comes to full implementation). Europe and European stakeholders should be prepared to co-design new post-quantum encryption, protocols and legal and ethical guidelines. This issue relates to privacy and human rights as well as demanding (potentially) new international agreements and institutions to govern a potential quantum future.

Amali De Silva - Mitchell | 26-09-22 | 04:09 Human rights & privacy | Security & crime | Technical & operational issues In the media we are increasingly hearing about the lack of awareness and sensitivity to secure the medical internet of things, associated devices and services, access, privacy of data and all matters of risk for the internet. It can be a matter of life or death if a device or service is compromised, or data corrupted. The need to ensure the UN Sendai principles is also key. As customized patient care from home, which is remote, becomes more internet dependent in real time, should an enhanced set of ethical, protection and technical internet standards, for devices and services, for the medical internet of things be developed and adopted ? The patient is a vulnerable individual in the community increasingly dependent on the internet.

Mathieu Paapst | 30-09-22 | 22:51 Development of IG ecosystem | Human rights & privacy In Europe, we not only have the GDPR, but we also have the ePrivacy Directive. This contains rules concerning the use of cookies, local storage, pixels, API calls, and other resources that can store or read data from the device of an end user. According to these rules, the end users should be informed about the function and purposes of these resources. In general, we can distinguish five purposes: Statistics, Statistics-anonymous, marketing/tracking, Functional and Preferences. The larger problem is that there is no consensus about those purposes. For example, one website may speak about the "functional purpose" for a particular cookie, whereas other websites call the purpose for that same cookie "Technical pur", " Essential", or " strictly necessary". "Statistics" or " analytics" are sometimes also called "Performance", and marketing/tracking is sometimes known as "ad-storage". Preferences Cookies are in some jurisdictions known as functionality. This is of course not transparent to the end-users. We should therefore find consensus in order to standardize the names of these purposes.
