Title: | Going for the throat: Carnivore in an Echelon World - Part II | Contributor(s): | Nabbali, Talitha (author); Perry, Mark (author) | Publication Date: | 2004 | Early Online Version: | 2004-03-08 | DOI: | 10.1016/S0267-3649(04)00018-4 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/27285 | Abstract: | Carnivore is a surveillance technology, a software program housed in a computer unit, which is installed by properly authorized FBI agents on a particular Internet Service Provider's (ISP) network. The Carnivore software system is used together with a tap on the ISP's network to “intercept, filter, seize and decipher digital communications on the Internet”. The system is described as a “specialized network analyzer” that works by “sniffing” a network and copying and storing a warranted subset of its traffic. In the FBI's own words “Carnivore chews on all data on the network, but it only actually eats the information authorized by a court order”. This article, in two parts, provides an overview of the FBI's Carnivore electronic surveillance system. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Computer Law & Security Review, 20(2), p. 84-97 | Publisher: | Elsevier Advanced Technology | Place of Publication: | United Kingdom | ISSN: | 2212-4748 2212-473X |
