Consequently, industry is in the crosshairs commercial sector— of not only foreign competitors, but also of foreign intelligence services one that focuses more that seek to surreptitiously obtain valuable knowledge and other on recognizing and responding to intellectual property. This is an unfair fight. It is further complicated by indicators of the the fact that both adversaries and allies alike have directed their threat, less on turning intelligence resources against U.S. industry. to investigators once the damage has Although the U.S. government has attempted to partner with the private sector on already been done. counterintelligence (CI) awareness and response, these efforts have been plagued by a limited concept of which industry sectors are at risk, inconsistency in programs, and redundancies across agencies. Moreover, the U.S. intelligence community is already being asked to do more with less. It is time for a new approach to the important function of counterintelligence outreach to the commercial sector. Such an approach must focus more on recognizing and responding to indicators of the threat, less on turning to investigators once the damage has already been done. Counterintelligence—in the theoretical sense—means preventing an adversary’s intelligence services from acquiring an information advantage.

To access the videos and written reports that were posted live during the show, please visit: http://www.etcentric.org/. Over the course of one week, January 6-11, 2013, the Entertainment Technology Center tracked the most interesting and breaking entertainment technology news coming out of this year’s event. The ETC team reported on new product announcements, evolving industry trends and whisper suite demonstrations. Reports were made available via ETC’s collaborative online destination for enter- tainment media news and commentary, ETCentric: The Media Professional’s Inside Exchange; its accompanying email newsletter, The Daily Bullet; and social networks Facebook and Twitter. The result was nearly 100 postings over a 7-day period (in addition to dozens of pre-show posts). Those stories from the site, rounded out with after-show research and observations, formed the basis for this report. We hope you find the reports useful in putting your finger on the pulse of consumer entertainment technology. As always, we are looking for feedback from you on ETCentric and this report.

  • Building Secure and Reliable Systems
    Building Secure & Reliable Systems Best Practices for Designing, Implementing and Maintaining Systems Compliments of Heather Adkins, Betsy Beyer, Paul Blankinship, Piotr Lewandowski, Ana Oprea & Adam Stubblefi eld Praise for Building Secure and Reliable Systems It is very hard to get practical advice on how to build and operate trustworthy infrastructure at the scale of billions of users. This book is the first to really capture the knowledge of some of the best security and reliability teams in the world, and while very few companies will need to operate at Google’s scale many engineers and operators can benefit from some of the hard-earned lessons on securing wide-flung distributed systems. This book is full of useful insights from cover to cover, and each example and anecdote is heavy with authenticity and the wisdom that comes from experimenting, failing and measuring real outcomes at scale. It is a must for anybody looking to build their systems the correct way from day one. —Alex Stamos, Director of the Stanford Internet Observatory and former CISO of Facebook and Yahoo This book is a rare treat for industry veterans and novices alike: instead of teaching information security as a discipline of its own, the authors offer hard-wrought and richly illustrated advice for building software and operations that actually stood the test of time. In doing so, they make a compelling case for reliability, usability, and security going hand-in-hand as the entirely inseparable underpinnings of good system design. —Michał Zalewski, VP of Security Engineering at Snap, Inc. and author of The Tangled Web and Silence on the Wire This is the “real world” that researchers talk about in their papers.

  • Surveillance Intermediaries
    Stanford Law Review Volume 70 January 2018 ARTICLE Surveillance Intermediaries Alan Z. Rozenshtein* Abstract. Apple’s high-profile 2016 fight with the FBI, in which the company challenged a court order commanding it to help unlock the iPhone of one of the San Bernardino terrorists, exemplifies how central the question of regulating government surveillance has become in U.S. politics and law. But scholarly attempts to answer this question have suffered from a serious omission. Scholars have ignored how government surveillance is checked by surveillance intermediaries: companies like Apple, Google, and Facebook that dominate digital communications and data storage and on whose cooperation government surveillance relies. This Article fills this gap in the scholarly literature, providing the first comprehensive analysis of how surveillance intermediaries constrain the surveillance executive: the law enforcement and foreign-intelligence agencies that conduct surveillance. In so doing, it enhances our conceptual understanding of, and thus our ability to improve, the institutional design of government surveillance. Surveillance intermediaries have financial and ideological incentives to resist government requests for user data. Their techniques of resistance are proceduralism and litigiousness that reject voluntary cooperation in favor of minimal compliance and aggressive litigation; technological unilateralism, in which companies design products and services to make surveillance harder; and policy mobilization that rallies legislative and public opinion against government surveillance. Surveillance intermediaries also enhance the surveillance separation of powers: They make the surveillance executive more subject to interbranch * Visiting Assistant Professor of Law, University of Minnesota Law School.
