Presentation of the criminal cybertrading industry and the fight against it from the perspective of law enforcement authorities

Marian Rübsamen, Generalstaatsanwaltschaft Bamberg, Zentralstelle Cybercrime Bayern

Dr. Roland van Rijswijk-Deij

Public key cryptography is the cornerstone of online trust. Unfortunately, public key cryptography is under threat from being broken by powerful quantum computers. Academia and industry have been working hard to create quantum-safe cryptographic algorithms that remain secure even if practical quantum computers become a reality. This "post-quantum cryptography" is a hot topic: the US has standardised the first set of algorithms for use. Large content providers, such as Cloudflare and Google, are experimenting with PQC and rolling it out, and the first browser support has also been deployed. Transitioning the whole Internet to these new cryptographic algorithms, however, is a major undertaking that comes with many challenges. In this talk, Roland will explain the basic need for post-quantum cryptography and will then highlight why the transition to PQC is far from trivial and far from over, and what challenges this will bring in the coming years.

This presentation explores the best practices and strategies for combating online harm with the focus on DNS abuse mitigation. We examine the challenges of mitigating DNS abuse when working with responsible entities and highlight the importance of effective actions to reduce online harm. A case study on one of the largest ongoing phishing campaigns is also presented to illustrate these efforts.

Seit über 10 Jahren bewährt sich der vom Verband Swico initiierte Code of Conduct für Hosting-Provider und Domain-Registrare als hilfreiches Werkzeug bei der Klärung und Behandlung von Beschwerden Dritter betreffend angeblich unzulässige Inhalte oder Domain-Registrierungen. Ein neues Urteil des Bezirksgerichts Visp ist wegweisend für die Branche und trägt damit zur Rechtssicherheit bei.
