A collegue from Russia sent me an email that I expert (with permission): Forwarded message follows:
Upon my return to Russia I have met with one of the best information protection & computer data security firms in Russia. They have their own developments in the field of computer security and, noteably, the special journal devoted to the cryptography and other information protection technics as well as legal aspects of these technologies. It is the single and thus best publication of this kind in Russia.
They have asked me to help them to get in touch with western specialists in the field of law & information technology protection. They would be happy to publish some articles (translations, of course) and find other ways of cooperation.
I suggest that either you personally or colleagues of yours would be interested in communicating on these matters with Russian specialists.
Their contact e-mail is hotline@confident.spb.su You may address the message to Petr Kuznetsov, he is a director of this firm.
