On 27 March 1997, the Council of the OECD adopted these guidelines relating to cryptography.

I don't know too much about cryptography, but a Lektor could decode their topsecret signals.

Such legislation often contemplated the use of digital signatures based on public key cryptography and certification authorities.

The Working Group considered the question whether its work should focus only on digital signatures (i.e., techniques involving the use of public key cryptography , also referred to as dual key cryptography ) or whether it should also include other forms of electronic signatures.

Advances in cryptography and steganography also enabled individuals to conceal their identities online or to impersonate other users.

And there's some complicated cryptography going on in there, but what's not complicated is voting with one of these forms.

So we can let computers do all the complicated cryptography for us, and then we'll use the paper for verification.

You have not selected a private key for yourself, so signing is not possible. Please select a private key in the Cryptography preferences dialog.

The view was expressed that the definition of digital signature should be extended to cover not only the use of public key cryptography but also other types of electronic signatures.

As to the scope of its work, there was general agreement in the Working Group that it should not extend to questions relating to the use of cryptography for security purposes.

42. The preparation of uniform rules on digital signatures and certification authorities was a very important task in view of the increasing role of public key cryptography in the emerging commercial practices.

It was noted that technologies not based on public key cryptography and generally referred to as electronic signatures were also being developed with a view to fulfilling functions typically performed by handwritten signatures.

In the context of that discussion, it was stated that the use of digital signatures relying on public key cryptography did not necessarily imply that the highest degree of legal certainty was sought.

Both the 1992 OECD Guidelines for the Security of Information Systems and the 1997 OECD Guidelines on Cryptography Policy noted the importance of data integrity and security in information and communications networks and systems.

It was agreed that, while the notion of digital signature should be restricted in scope to cover only asymmetric cryptography, other definitions might be needed to cover other techniques that might be broadly referred to under the notion of electronic signatures .

Moreover, in dealing with public key cryptography, those uniform rules might need to accommodate various levels of security and to recognize the various legal effects and levels of liability corresponding to the various types of services being provided in the context of digital signatures.

The Working Group recalled that, alongside digital signatures and certification authorities, future work in the area of electronic commerce might also need to address issues of technical alternatives to public key cryptography general issues of functions performed by third party service providers and electronic contracting (A CN.9 437, paras. 156 157).

It was felt that, while the Working Group might appropriately focus its attention on the issues of digital signatures in view of the apparently predominant role played by public key cryptography in the emerging electronic commerce practice, the uniform rules to be prepared should be consistent with the media neutral approach taken in the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Commerce.

In view of the important role played by public key cryptography, his delegation was pleased to note that the Working Group on Electronic Commerce had decided to focus its attention on a highly technical field which required uniformity in the law, and would at a later stage address the issues of jurisdiction, applicable law and dispute settlement on the Internet.

In the context of the discussion of future work, it was recalled that, alongside digital signatures and certification authorities, future work in the area of electronic commerce might also need to address issues of technical alternatives to public key cryptography general issues of functions performed by third party service providers and electronic contracting (see A 51 17, paras. 219 221).

In addition, it was felt that, while the Working Group might appropriately focus its attention on issues of digital signatures in view of the apparently predominant role played by public key cryptography in the emerging electronic commerce practice, the uniform rules to be prepared should be consistent with the media neutral approach taken in the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Commerce.
