Senate Intel leaders worry encryption commission too slow
http://thehill.com/policy/cybersecurity/266517-senate-intel-leaders-worry-encryption-commission-too-slow
Senate Intelligence Committee leaders want to move swiftly on
encryption legislation and bypass a proposed national commission
to study the topic first. "I don't think a commission is
necessarily the right thing when you know what the problem is.
And we know what the problem is," Chairman Richard Burr (R-N.C.)
said. Burr is working on a bill with his committee's ranking
member, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), that would guarantee
law enforcement access to encrypted data.
