13:55 German police are unable to listen to skype requests permission to Trojans | |
| German police could not intercept and decipher Skype traffic for wiretapping phone calls of suspected criminals and terrorists. At the annual meeting of representatives of law enforcement and security professionals at this complained to reporters Zirka Joerg (Joerg Ziercke), president of the National Police headquarters in Germany (BKA), according to Reuters. This situation is not satisfied with the police, for which wiretapping phones long ago became a standard tool for rapid development. Naturally, the security forces are not going to abandon such an effective tool and are now looking for a way out of this situation. Experts say VoIP-telephony by its nature more difficult to intercept because the information is transmitted as packets through the network to an unpredictable route, rather than fixed lines, as in conventional telephony. Joerg Zirka said they did not seek the leadership of Skype to ask for help in solving this problem. "I do not think it will help" - he said, especially because it does not solve the problem of VoIP-telephony in general. Police need more. The security forces "punch" through the legislature permission to secretly install viruses on computers of suspected criminals to carry out surveillance in the best traditions of the Stasi. In this way, and listen to conversations on Skype, too, will become much easier. Via Reuters | |
