ISP guideline on Cybercrime investigation released
I wrote about US Senate's approval of Council of Europe Cybercrime Convention . Recently, the Cybercrime Committee of Council of Europe released a guideline on how ISP and law enforcement agencies should cooperate in cybercrime investigations. Guidelines for law enforcement - service provider cooperation (adopted on 2 April 2008) From this document, it could be see that there is a large gap between law enforcement and ISP on obtaining evidences. Both sides need to formalise their procedures (either request or giving evidences). If there is no force from the government or other external factor, I could see no reason for them to incur additional resource in this process.
