摘要: 密码在保障信息安全的同时,也对执法机构的执法活动构成现实障碍,“加密与执法”的冲突就成为国家密码管理法律制度中需要解决的核心问题。从实际案例出发,分析其中的争议焦点,可以为冲突的解决提供更具有现实性和针对性的方案。密码的泛化使用客观上造成了执法能力的减弱,但其在信息安全中将仍然扮演着无可替代的角色,因此必须确定密码自由使用的原则。为了平衡“加密与执法”冲突,对服务商进行必要的约束更显重要,在符合法律规定的情况下,服务商应当提供必要的执法协助。为了减少冲突,国家立法可以考虑建立国家技术协助中心,可以有效避免执法机构与服务商的直接利益冲突。

Abstract: In the protection of information security, the cryptography constitutes a real obstacle to the law enforcement activities, and the conflict between encryption and law enforcement has become the core issue of the national cryptography management legal system. Starting from the actual case, analyze the controversial focus, provide more realistic and targeted suggestions for the conflict. Cryptography using caused the weakening of the law enforcement capacity, but the cryptography still plays an irreplaceable role in the information security, so the principle of free use of cryptography must be determined. In order to balance the conflict between encryption and law enforcement, it is important to make the necessary constraints to the service provider,they shall provide the necessary law enforcement assistance in conformity with the provisions of the law. In order to reduce conflicts, national legislation may consider establishing a national technical assistance center, which can effectively avoid direct conflicts between law enforcement agencies and service providers.
