"Nowadays more and more European citizens use Information Society services, be it financial services, intelligent transport systems, taxation systems for road infrastructure usage, computerised systems for healthcare, the Internet, surveillance and monitoring cameras, or use of biometric data. The security and safety of such services is vital for user confidence.
The security of electronic networks and computerised systems along with technologies for enhancing personal data protection are the main concern of the Strategy for a Safe Information Society, adopted by the Commission in 2006. In a Communication dated May 2007 the Commission presented , the potential risks related to the use of information technology, such as identity theft, surveillance or even fraud.
In order to achieve a safer Information Society the specific products and services should include mechanisms for data protection even from the design stage. Likewise, it is necessary that the processes and principles applicable to providing security in the Information Society be defined and accessible to all those involved in the design, operation and use of computerised systems. I ask the Commission to examine the necessity of certain Community regulations on the security of electronic communication services and computerised systems.
Any supplier of services specific to the Information Society must observe the national and international legislation on data protection."@en1
