U.S. Attorney Gen. Janet Reno offered to "set the record
straight" at FCBA lunch Thurs. on why controversial
issues of encryption and digital wiretapping "deserve
support" of communications industry. She said law
enforcement community agrees that encryption is
"critical" to citizens who want to protect sensitive data
but "our ability to protect life and property is
threatened" if people use encryption that can't be
accessed by law enforcement officials: "The only solution
is encryption that allows data recovery." She said it's
"important to understand" that digital wiretapping
"doesn't expand the government's ability to conduct
electronic surveillance."
