On Thursday the 5th of October the Crime and Justice Research Centre, in collaboration with civil society groups the Australian Privacy Foundation, Digital Rights Watch Australia and FutureWise, and industry partner ThoughtWorks, hosted an event on \u2018Attacks on Encryption.\u2019 This in response to the Australian Government’s intention to pursue new and increased powers to access encrypted communications via s\u2019backdoors.\u2019<\/p>\n

A panel of encryption experts, international privacy law experts, politicians, digital rights advocates, and journalists examined the social and technical consequences of the proposed new ‘backdooring\u2019 powers. They argued these powers are unnecessary and should be highly concerning for Australians who, unlike other western democracies, do not have a constitutional right to privacy.<\/p>\n
