E-evidence and Jurisdiction
On December 14, 2016, Internet & Jurisdiction’s Bertrand de La Chapelle addressed the Conference on Cyber Issues organized by the Slovak Presidency of the Council of the EU. The one-day event allowed senior policy and security experts to take stock of the various issues and approaches related to cybersecurity ahead of the Malta Presidency, which started in January 2017.
The experts participating in the Cybercrime Panel discussed current policy developments, legislative, and non-legislative initiatives at EU and Council of Europe level. Mr. de La Chapelle highlighted the fundamental transnational dimension and the jurisdictional challenges underlying access to e-evidence.
Reporting on the first Global Internet and Jurisdiction Conference convened by the I&J policy network, he added:
Dialogue and synchronization between the diverse initiatives addressing this problem is essential to avoid a detrimental legal arms race: this is about establishing procedural standards between public and private actors across borders.
The conference conclusions, as summarized by the Slovak Presidency, can be found here.
