Danger Detection – Neos concerns: Who monitors the Surmers?

Date:

The Pinks are afraid of the safety of third -party data when monitoring Messenger Services. In any case, the selection of providers is limited and software has developed the now Israeli business partner of former Chancellor Sebastian Kurz.

No less than a milestone in security policy, hope ÖVP and Spö for the recently decided messenger or dangerous monitoring. In the future, terrorist hazards must be recognized in the future and on time, all attacks are prevented. The government also no longer wants to be ‘blind’ with Messenger services such as WhatsApp when it comes to combating terrorism. The Neos is the only one in the government parties.

As reported, the pinks want to “wait for the eight weeks” before they give the green light. The party is not fundamentally against dangerous monitoring, but has an accurate eye on the design.

Technical details must be decisive
Party leader and Minister of Foreign Affairs Beate Meinl-Reisinger would like a “constitutional solution”. Club chairman Yannick Shetty also explains: “The assessment is just the start – we will actively contribute to a bundle of suggestions to ensure that the measure serves exclusively to combat terrorism.” The devil is apparently in detail or in technology. It must be ensured that only relevant data from mobile phones is really evaluated.

It is certain: there are only a few providers worldwide who offer this surveillance. One is the American IT group Palantir, who is billionaire Peter Thiel chairman and in which the former Spö federal manager Laura Rudas is occupied.

Kurz company partner has developed spy software
Another company that would be considered is the Israeli NSO group, which has founded and developed Shalev Hulio de Pegasus software. Hulio later left the company and is now a business partner of former Chancellor Sebastian Kurz at the CyberSecurity Company Dream. Dream itself, the “Kroon” from the short environment was insured, the services were not used.

The worries of the Neos are not shared by the ÖVP and the Spö. Jörg Leichtfried, State Secretary in the Ministry of the Interior, is also for it. Detail about the margin: In 2019 he spoke as Spö Club chairman about a “massive intervention in the citizens’ freedom rights and warned about” spy software “and the road to” absolute surveillance society “. At that time the black and blue government wanted to introduce the monitoring of the messenger.
