<div><p class="MsoNormal">Internet Society Responds to Reports of the
U.S. Government’s Circumvention of Encryption Technology<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">The Internet Society is alarmed by
continuing reports alleging systematic United States
government efforts to circumvent Internet security
mechanisms. The Internet Society President and CEO, Lynn St.
Amour, said, “If true, these reports describe government
programmes that undermine the technical foundations of the
Internet and are a fundamental threat to the Internet’s
economic, innovative, and social potential. Any systematic,
state-level attack on Internet security and privacy is a
rejection of the global, collaborative fabric that has enabled
the Internet's growth to extend beyond the interests of any
one country.”
<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">The Internet Society believes that global
interoperability and openness of the Internet are
pre-requisites for confidence in online interaction, they
unlock the Internet as a forum for economic and social
progress, and they are founded on basic assumptions of trust.
We are deeply concerned that these principles are being eroded
and that users' legitimate expectations of online security are
being treated with contempt.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">As the institutional home of the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF), we believe that open and
transparent processes are essential for security
standardization, and result in better outcomes than any
alternative approach. For example, protocols developed by the
IETF are open for all to see, inspect, and verify, as are the
open and inclusive processes by which they are specified.
<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">IETF Chairman Jari Arkko has strongly
reiterated the IETF’s commitment to improving security in the
Internet, and to seeking ways of improving security protocols
in light of these new revelations and security threats. “The
IETF has a long-standing commitment to openness and
transparency in developing security protocols for the
Internet, and sees this as critical to confidence in their use
and implementation.” To read more, visit:
<a href="http://www.ietf.org/blog/2013/09/security-and-pervasive-monitoring/" target="_blank">http://www.ietf.org/blog/2013/09/security-and-pervasive-monitoring/</a>.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, the open development of robust
technical specifications is just one link in the chain.
Security standards must be properly implemented and used. This
is a wake-up call for technology developers and adopters
alike, to reexamine what we can do to ensure that all links in
the chain are equally strong. This is key to helping restore
public trust and confidence in the Internet.
<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">The Internet has tremendous potential for
economic and social good, but unless all stakeholders trust
the Internet as a safe place for business, social interaction,
academic enquiry, and self-expression, those economic and
social benefits are put at risk. To fulfill its potential, the
Internet must be underpinned by the right combination of
technology, operational processes, legislation, policy, and
governance. The recent reports suggest that U.S. Government
programmes have systematically undermined some or all of those
measures, and that is why we view the revelations with such
grave concern.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">With this mind, we issue these calls to
action for the global community:<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">‧ To every citizen of the Internet: let
your government representatives know that, even in matters of
national security, you expect privacy, rule of law, and due
process in any handling of your data.
<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">Security is a collective responsibility
that involves multiple stakeholders. In this regard, we call
on:<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">‧Those involved in technology research and
development: use the openness of standards processes like the
IETF to challenge assumptions about security specifications.
<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">‧Those who implement the technology and
standards for Internet security: uphold that responsibility in
your work, and be mindful of the damage caused by loss of
trust.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">‧Those who develop products and services
that depend on a trusted Internet: secure your own services,
and be intolerant of insecurity in the infrastructure on which
you depend.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">‧To every Internet user: ensure you are
well informed about good practice in online security, and act
on that information. Take responsibility for your own
security.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">At the Internet Society, we remain
committed to advancing work in areas such as browser security,
privacy settings, and digital footprint awareness in order to
help users understand and manage their privacy and security.
The citizens of the Internet deserve a global and open
platform for communication built on solid foundations of
security and privacy.<u></u><u></u></p>
