Re: [STDS-802-11] Reminder about RCM SG Teleconference Monday June 8



--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector ---

Hi Dick:

 

     Thanks for your suggestions, which looks very good to me.

 

     In my view, the inclusion of deployment of data privacy service provide some expanded coverage, in contrast with technologies only generated privacy functions.  A service oriented privacy model may include the operational privacy protection schematics. I agree with those areas should be investigated.

 

 

Best Regards

Rob

My recommendations (using the paradigm that simpler is better):

 

5.2.b. Scope of the project:

 

This amendment to the IEEE Std 802.11 medium access control (MAC) specification specifies new mechanisms that enable deployment of data privacy services.

 

This amendment makes no changes to the existing IEEE Std 802.11 mechanisms that enable such services.

 

 

5.5 Need for the Project:

 

Mobile devices incorporating IEEE Std 802.11 are now ubiquitous, and this success of IEEE Std 802.11 has created a privacy problem. Personal mobile devices have been and currently are being used to obtain sensitive, personal information such as where people go, when they go, to whom they speak, and what information they access. New privacy fulfillment mechanisms in IEEE Std 802.11 are necessary to address these issues. 

 

 

5.6 Stakeholders for the Standard:

 

Manufacturers and users of semiconductors, personal computers, enterprise networking devices, consumer electronic devices, home networking equipment, and mobile devices; together with cellular operators, transportation industries, multiple system operators, video content suppliers, and regulatory bodies whose charter is to protect the (data privacy) rights of consumers.

 

 

8.1 Additional Explanatory Notes (Item Number and Explanation):

 

1.         Trust, security, and privacy are closely related. Trust is necessary but not sufficient to ensure security, and security is necessary but not sufficient to ensure privacy.

2.         Data privacy is concerned with control of data that is or can be used to construct personally identifiable information (PII).

3.         IEEE Std 802.11 specifies communication mechanisms which are used to exchange between entities information that may contain data that can be used to generate PII.

4.         Providing mechanisms that allow users to retain control of PII generated as a result of using 802.11 is the purpose of this amendment

 

Cheers,

 

RR

  Hi Rob, et al,

 

  I was unable to make the RCM call today but I do have some comments on the proposed PAR. Please

see the attached marked-up version of your document.

 

  Specifically, I don't think "ethics" really has anything to do with the problem. Everyone can be ethical

and there can still be privacy violations. Privacy is an issue of control over one's PII, it is not a vague

assurance that other people will ethically handle other's PII. I think the PAR should be written to reflect

that reality.

 

  regards,

 

  Dan.

HI Carol:

 

       I would like to request some time to discuss to PAR for privacy during the RCM call, I uploaded two documents: 11/20-0854 and 11/20-0855.

 

 

Thanks

Rob

Greetings everyone,

 

The next RCM SG teleconference is coming up on Monday June 8 at 10:00amEDT.

 

As a reminder, the study group is tasked with developing a PAR and CSD for random and changing MAC address-related changes to 802.11 and another PAR and CSD for general privacy-related improvements to 802.11.

 

Please consider making a contribution on either of the two topics.

 

Regards,

 

Carol Ansley
