About
The intensive use of electronic communications such as webmail, messaging services apps or social media has led criminal investigations to increasingly rely on electronic evidence (e-evidence). At the same time, providers offering such services and their infrastructures are often outside Member State's conducting the investigation, thus introducing a cross border element to strictly local cases.
In the context of the DG Justice project “Criminal Justice Access to Digital Evidences in the Cloud – “LIVE_FORensics” (LIVE_FOR), the round table aims to discuss four major issues of cross border access to electronic evidence and judicial cooperation. To that end the panel will examine the EIO from the perspectives of Law Enforcement Agencies; Data Protection/Privacy; the protection of victim rights and the notion of sovereignty.
