I want thoughts on legalities. :) 10:24 <@mtown_nerd> I'm just thinking out loud 10:24 <@mtown_nerd> We have plans on putting such a device in operation soon 10:25 <@mtown_nerd> and I started wondering this morning about things like plausible deniability should any HIPPA-sensitive data leak out, or anything come in and compromise a system. 10:25 <@Corydon76-dig> It's just a proxy, isn't it? 10:25 <@mtown_nerd> yep 10:25 <@Corydon76-dig> How is it decrypting? 10:26 <@mtown_nerd> I think it's a feature that's specific to this particular solution 10:26 <@Corydon76-dig> What is it decrypting? 10:26 <@mtown_nerd> Basically the interior client tunnels to it using a client cert, and then the box tunnels out using a set of certs (the origin of which I've not been made privvy), and inspects all the [decrypted] traffic going between the two tunnels 10:27 <@Corydon76-dig> Uh, you can do that with any VPN 10:27 <@mtown_nerd> one of the network guys gave me the impression that certs are manually set up between the device and any "authorized" outside parties (bank sites, 3rd party providers or partners, etc.) ...but that doesn't sound very feasible to me. 10:27 <@Corydon76-dig> It's a VPN 10:27 <@mtown_nerd> Yes, well...that's not expensive enough or difficult enough to support. So we don't want it 10:27 <@mtown_nerd> :P 10:28 <@mtown_nerd> Honestly, teh very purpose of this device is nebulous, b/c I'm not even convinced they even have an internet or firewall policy 10:29 <@Corydon76-dig> Figure out who's getting the kickback 10:29 <@mtown_nerd> But that's irrelevant here .... I'm simply curious about having a device singularly in line between the core network and the outside that is supposed to monitor (and possibly record?) the decrypted data exchanges between inside and outside clients. 10:30 <@mtown_nerd> Or, rather, more specifically, the legal entanglements that such a device can create for said org. 10:30 <@Corydon76-dig> It's not a bad idea, though it could be done with open tools... 10:30 <@Corydon76-dig> mtown_nerd: there aren't any. The organization already has the right to examine all packets which flow through its network 10:30 <@mtown_nerd> Correct 10:31 <@mtown_nerd> But if that org is compromised b/c some data that was being actively decrypted and supposedly monitored gets out, or something gets in 10:31 <@mtown_nerd> does the very presence of that device not completely remove an organizations ability to claim plausible deniability in that case? 10:31 <@Corydon76-dig> Um, it's just a VPN. Nothing more. 10:31 -!- nachoguy [~boster@nacho-tested.hrapproved.com] has quit [Quit: leaving] 10:31 <@mtown_nerd> I understand the concept of a proxy, Corydon76-dig :P 10:32 <@Corydon76-dig> It does NOT decrypt all encrypted data, such as HTTPS connections 10:32 <@Dolemite> There are multiple legality issues at play in such a device 10:32 <@Dolemite> while you can assert that as the owner of a business you have the right to monitor and record all traffic across your wire, it's more of a moral and workplace culture issue 10:33 <@mtown_nerd> Corydon76-dig: AS I have not seen exactly how this thing works, I can't say for sure what it is or isn't doing. That was my thought, but these guys insist it does. *shrug* I'm speaking strictly hypothetically. 10:33 <@Dolemite> legally, as long as you disclose to one party in the conversation (in the State of TN) you are covered 10:33 <@mtown_nerd> Dolemite: That disclosure shoudl theoretically be guaranteed by the presence of some kidn of internet usage or firewall policy, I would wager... 10:33 <@Dolemite> However, the bad side of it is that if you have such a device, and you are sued by a third party and they know that you have such a device, it can be used against you as evidence 10:33 <@mtown_nerd> (even though I'm pretty sure we have neither, lol) 10:34 <@Dolemite> e-Discovery will become the bane of your existence 10:34 <@mtown_nerd> Dolemite: You are referring to a party who sues b/c you did not inform them that they wee being recorded? or are you talking about an unrelated suit? 10:34 <@mtown_nerd> (just clarifying..) 10:34 <@Dolemite> Any suit 10:34 <@Dolemite> You make widgets 10:34 <@Dolemite> I buy a widget 10:34 <@Dolemite> I know that you record all internetz traffic 10:34 <@Dolemite> Your widget causes me to lose a tooth 10:35 <@Dolemite> I sue you for making a defective widget 10:35 <@Dolemite> I can now subpoena your internetz recorder box to see if you had any communications stating that you knew that your widgets were likely to cause people to lose teeth 10:35 <@mtown_nerd> Right 10:35 <@mtown_nerd> Yeha... that was my thought. 10:36 <@mtown_nerd> Data you could have otherwise said was lost simply b/c of the "nature of the beast" isn't, and is now sitting in your environment waiting to be audited and picked over 10:36 <@Dolemite> prezactly 10:36 <@mtown_nerd> Hmm 10:36 <@mtown_nerd> Interesting. :) 10:36 <@Corydon76-dig> You could say exactly the same for an email server, though 10:37 <@Corydon76-dig> and email is much more likely to be picked over 10:37 <@mtown_nerd> Corydon76-dig: Not really, b/c the function and intent of email is pretty niversal at this point. I'm not sure you would have exactly the same kind of problem 10:37 <@mtown_nerd> I mean.. technically ,yes... but I'm speaking more toward the "We didn't know" factor that an internet monitoring device essentially nullifies. 10:38 <@Corydon76-dig> mtown_nerd: in fact, email is generally where subpoenas go, for e-discovery 10:38 <@Corydon76-dig> For one thing, the data is generally a lot better organized 10:39 <@Corydon76-dig> Email also nullifies the "we didn't know" factor 10:39 <@Dolemite> email does get picked over constantly 10:39 <@mtown_nerd> Hmm... yeah.... I guess I can see that. 10:39 <@mtown_nerd> I wasn't thinking of the two in the same context, but that does make sense. 10:39 <@Dolemite> but what you've now done with this box is that you've decrypted what would normally be encrypted traffic 10:39 <@mtown_nerd> Dolemite: right 10:39 <@mtown_nerd> Dolemite: That's why I wasn't thinking of the two in the same light. lol 10:40 <@Dolemite> e-Discovery covers way more than just email - it really depends on what your likelihood of being involved in litigation is 10:40 <@Corydon76-dig> Yeah, but generally that box is how you got to the email server in the first place 10:40 <@Corydon76-dig> to safeguard against people using cleartext protocols 10:40 <@Dolemite> As a large University, we are constantly involved in various things, from intellectual property disputes to DMCA violations. We get tons of them. 10:40 <@mtown_nerd> Dolemite: We're in healthcare. I imagine it's more common than most people here - esp the execs - would like. 10:40 <@Dolemite> Yeah, so you're in the same boat as us, as we have a Medical Center as well 10:41 <@Corydon76-dig> The main idea on the VPN logger is to know who accessed what file from outside the network, at what time 10:41 <@Dolemite> Our General Counsel has basically stated that we should only keep what regulations require us to keep. 10:42 <@coil> lol @ hot or not congress version http://www.tomscott.com/congress/ 10:43 <@Corydon76-dig> mtown_nerd: ask their sales guy to provide you with an example of the type of logs that it keeps 10:43 <@Corydon76-dig> mtown_nerd: I cannot imagine that it actually stores packet contents, other than metadata 10:44 <@Corydon76-dig> i.e. Joe sent Sally an email with the Subject of Foo at thus-and-such a date and time 10:45 <@ware> sounds like some mega boner inducing chat in here 10:45 <@ware> dont mind me 10:45 <@Corydon76-dig> Sally retrieved said email at thus-and-such a date and time.
