Abstract: People are increasingly worried about the developments in information technology, especially what concerns about their privacy. Nowadays, it can be proved that personal information is very difficult to protect - especially in the Internet. Scientific studies show that the key risk of security is people. There are people who develop computer systems, and those who use information technology. Privacy and security protection can be seen as a basic human right. Confidence to the Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) has always been high in Finland. Despite of this, there are people in society, who do not trust at all to LEAs - especially what comes for different kind of surveillance by the police. Development and the speed of different kind of information are really fast, and one of the main problems is the law retardation. How many people are even thinking about what kind of a walking data bank they are with, for example mobile phones, bonus- and credit-cards? In fact in t!
his society, there is always someone who knows who you are, how you live, who your friends are, wherever you are, what you do, what you buy, what are your hobbies and what kind of lifestyle you have. But the main concern in this matter is not how anyone other than the authority gets such information - but what LEA is doing with information they get. However, people are willing to give more rights to authorities if, usage of these intrusive means, are more transparent and better informed to the public. Today there are technological possibilities to create more transparent and credible monitoring for surveillance activities and in this paper is given an example of that.
