I'm going over these "nouvelles directives" and my impression is that there seems to be no new legislation which will be presented to the parliament. This is just a framework for the implementation and certification of systems to expedite surveillance data. It looks like the legal basis that allows for the surveillance has already been established in OSCPT RS 780.1 from October 2000. It seems that there is a great deal of information that providers will be responsible to deliver, historical and real-time to centralized monitoring facility.
The cover letter that I received pretty clearly stats that (my translation from French) "the directives take effect August 1st 2009 with a transitional period until June 30 2010 during which time the providers will implement the measures specified". They also mention that a certification procedure will be put in place for the law enforcement agency to confirm that the provider is complying with the standards. Am I reading this thing the right way? Does anyone have a solid understanding of what is specified in OSCPT RS 780.1? Or the ETSI standard? Is anyone else looking into how to implement this thing in their network? btw. I'm surprised there not a bit more noise about this. If you are an ISP is Switzerland and you haven't been made aware of this document I'd check with your legal department and get your hands on a copy. I've got a meeting with our lawyers to talk about what this means for us.
