ARTURO DONOSO CASTELLÓN QUITO, 2015 i SÍNTESIS La presente disertación se ha centrado en el estudio e investigación del derecho a la intimidad y la vulneración que ha tenido y tiene, cuando los Estados se ven en la necesidad de protegerse a sí mismos de inminentes ataques contra su seguridad y soberanía, justificando, muchas veces, su excesivo uso de poder, con argumentos muy propios de un Estado totalitario, y no toman en cuenta que, quienes resultan más perjudicados por su actuación, son sus habitantes, ya que no sólo su privacidad e intimidad son vulneradas, si no que se forma una cadena de afectaciones a nivel emocional, psicológico, mental, moral, y físico. La problematización que dio nacimiento a la presente disertación fue la duda que se origina al no saber si lo que tiene más peso es la soberanía estatal o los derechos de las personas; el no saber con exactitud si el Estado debe está en óptimas condiciones para que sus habitantes vivan bien, o si primero las personas deben estar plenamente protegidas y libres para que el Estado camine. Como objeto de esta disertación, he analizado que la sociedad contemporánea, con sus avances tecnológicos y científicos, hace que el ser humano se torne vulnerable, entre otros aspectos, frente al poder de la información y de los medios de comunicación. La vida personal, que antes era algo que se compartía con pocos y que terceros tenían un restringido acceso a ella, ahora es algo que quedó en el pasado, y los Estados, dentro de su rol de brindar seguridad a sus ciudadanos, juegan un papel de doble filo. Por un lado ellos deben protegerse a sí mismos para contar con los elementos necesarios y suficientes para proteger a las personas que lo habitan; y por otro lado, deben cuidar que los habitantes no se vean vulnerados al momento en que dichos Estados ejercen sus atribuciones. Existen dificultades para mantener el equilibrio racional entre el deber del gobierno de proteger a los ciudadanos de toda clase de peligros, y el derecho de protegerse a sí mismo. ii Agradecimientos A Dios, que es la base y fundamento de todo lo que hacemos en nuestras vidas.

  • State of Cyber Security and Surveillance in India a Review of the Legal Landscape
    State of Cyber Security and Surveillance in India A Review of the Legal Landscape Introduction The issue of cyber security and surveillance, especially unauthorised surveillance, though traditionally unprioritised, has recently gained much traction due to the increasing number of news reports regarding various instances of unauthorised surveillance and cyber crimes. In the case of unauthorised surveillance, more than the frequency of the instances, it is their sheer magnitude that has shocked civil society and especially civil rights groups. In the background of this ever increasing concern regarding surveillance as well as increasing concerns regarding cyber security due to the increased pervasiveness of technology in our society, this paper tries to discuss the legal and regulatory landscape regarding surveillance as well as cyber security. The paper starts with an overview of the right to privacy, which forms one of the fundamental elements of any challenge to illegal surveillance. It then discusses the legal provisions dealing with interception under the two main legislations utilised for surveillance as well as some of the minor statutes, and tries to highlight the conditions imposed and incorporated into the law to avoid unauthorised interception. The paper then discusses the provisions relevant to interception and surveillance incorporated in the License Agreements for Internet Service Providers (ISPs), Telecom Service Providers (TSPs) as well as the Unified Access Service (UAS) License. It then discusses the major provisions dealing with cyber security by elaborating on the relevant provisions in the Information Technology Act, 2000 as well as the Rules framed under it before exploring the connect between privacy and transparency and dealing with the provisions of the Right to Information Act, 2005 insofar as they are relevant to this discussion.

  • CONCEPTUALISING INTERACTION BETWEEN CRYPTOGRAPHY and LAW Pratik Prakash Dixit*
    NUJS Law Review 11 NUJS L. Rev. 3 (2018) CONCEPTUALISING INTERACTION BETWEEN CRYPTOGRAPHY AND LAW Pratik Prakash Dixit* The modern form of cryptography has pervaded nearly all levels of everyday technological use. It is used to secure online commercial transactions, ATM transactions, all modern technological devices like mobile phones and laptops, and instant messaging applications like WhatsApp. Though encryption provides a zone of privacy to users, it also presents the challenge of “going dark” before law enforcement agencies. Recently, there has been a growing debate in countries like the United States and India, to regulate the use of encryption so that the law enforcement agencies can have access to the encrypted data. However, the governments have not been able to figure out the modalities to do so. Since encryption is the most potent tool at the disposal of an individual to protect his or her privacy, any government policy which seeks to regulate its use must also take into consideration its potential impact on the privacy of citizens. This paper argues that a greater focus must be laid on adopting stronger encryption standards rather than weakening them. Empirical facts also prove that the binary of ‘privacy versus security’ is fallacious because the gains accrued from using strong cryptography easily outweigh the losses. Table of Contents I. INTRODUCTION ........................................................................................................... 2 II.
