What Does the EU Lawmaker Know about Security and Trust on the Internet? A Look at Current and Future Internet Laws in Europe

Activity: Talk or presentationLecture and oral contribution

Description

Whereas trust and security have specific meanings in the IT industry, the lawmakers usually have a very vague and politically-biased understanding of both. This, together with the technical gap between them and the IT world, often leads to confused and unsatisfactory solutions. The European lawmaker is struggling to strike the right balance between achieving consumer/citizen protection on one hand and promoting business- friendly and innovation-inducing solutions on the other.
