Communications surveillance is now a global business. Over  
the past three decades, law enforcement and national  
security agencies have worked with the private sector to  
ensure that all new forms of communications are capable of  
being monitored. A range of new international legal  
agreements provide the foundation for this activity. 
 
Who are the key players in this new industry? What  
mechanisms are being developed to build surveillance into  
the architecture of communications? What forms of  
technology are being used to intercept communications - and  
to resist interception? 
 
This unique one-day conference will explore these technical  
and legal questions, and provide a public forum for open  
discussion.
