privecsg-15-0009-01-0000 IEEE 802 Internet Privacy Tutorial - Summary The Tutorial provided an update on the recent concerns about Internet privacy, the actions that IETF is taking, and the guidelines that are being followed when developing new specifications (e.g. RFC 6973 - Privacy Considerations for Internet Protocols) Highlighted Privacy concerns applicable specifically to Link Layer technologies, and provided suggestions on how IEEE 802 can help addressing them The idea of developing an IEEE 802 recommended practices document, similar to the one produced by IETF (e.g. RFC 6973) was suggested and supported by several IEEE 802 members from different WGs 3
privecsg-15-0009-01-0000 IEEE 802 EC Privacy SG Background Creation of an Executive Committee Study Group on Privacy Recommendations (2014-07-18) Currently chartered to run until March 2015 Expecting renewal for one more cycle Advanced most work with teleconferences and email discussions 4
privecsg-15-0009-01-0000 IEEE 802 EC Privacy SG Scope The IEEE 802 Executive Committee (EC) Privacy Recommendation SG will study privacy issues related to IEEE 802 technologies and consider the need for a recommended practice applicable protocols. If such a need is identified, the SG will determine whether the IEEE 802 criteria for standards development (CSD) support the initiation of a project and, if so, it will prepare a PAR for consideration by the IEEE 802 Executive Committee. to IEEE 802 5
privecsg-15-0009-01-0000 Call for Contributions Topics considered by SG include: (1) Threat Model for Privacy at Link Layer (2) Privacy Issues at Link Layer (3) Proposals regarding functionalities in IEEE 802 protocols to improve Privacy (4) Proposals regarding measuring levels of Privacy on Internet protocols (5) Implications of MAC address changes (6) Other 6
