Unit 6 Discussion
Overview
JKL Corporation offers end-to-end encryption services to customers in its proprietary messaging application. JKL prides itself in offering private communications that are not subject to eavesdropping. Given their high level of encryption, the messages of suspected criminals cannot be viewed by law enforcement. Court orders and authorized search warrants demanding access to customer communications have begun to be served on JKL to access customer profile information and content. JKL faces a dilemma of not wanting to provide user content, which it claims it cannot independently access and being unwilling to grant law enforcement access to its encryption
keys. Before responding, consider the following prompts:
· Reflect on the significance of the constitutional concerns and legal implications of government surveillance addressing cybersecurity.
· How do we evaluate the government’s need to offer cybersecurity safety?
· Reflect on the importance of existing federal legislation allowing for eavesdropping on electronic communications.
