2017-03-29 Shin Bet, e-government, and safeguarding "procedures and institutions of a democratic regime"


Shin Bet, e-government, and safeguarding "procedures and institutions of a democratic regime"
Vague and ambiguous response by the Shin-Bet regarding its charge in the safeguard of "procedures and institutions of a democratic regime", stands contrary to ample evidence of serious fraud in e-government in all branches of the regime.

Figures:  Nadav Argaman - Shin-Bet Head
_____ 

OccupyTLV, March 29 - response [1] was  from the Prime Minister's office on inquiry addressed to Shin-Bet Head Nadav Argaman, pertaining to performing the Shin-Bet's duties pursuant to the Shin-Bet Act (2002) - safeguard of critical/vital IT systems of "procedures and institutions of a democratic regime".
The response says:
The Shin-Bet performs its duties, pursuant to the relevant law, pertaining to fulfilling its charge regarding various IT systems in the State of Israel.
Such response fails to address the inquiry. The inquiry [2] presented the contradiction in law regarding the Shin-Bet's duties:

  • The Shin-Bet Act (2002) charges the Shin-Bete with the safeguard of "procedures and institutions of a democratic regime".
  • The Authorization of Public Entities' Security Act (1998), after various modifications over the years, provides a list of entities and systems that the Shin-Bet is charged with protecting, but leaves out all entities that are vital/critical for "procedures and institutions of a democratic regime" - Knesset (parliament), Supreme Court, District and Magistrate Courts, Ministry of Justice, prisons, Central Election Committee, and more...
In response on previous inquiries on the Shin-Bet, which documented lack of integrity and/or fraud, pertaining to IT systems of the Supreme Court and the Central Election Committee, responses were received that the Shin-Bet was not charged with safeguard of integrity and security of such systems.

Moreover, according to media reports, Shin-Bet authorities relative to IT systems were further narrowed over the past year with the establishment of the "Cyber Authority" with no adequate legal foundation.   Authorities were transferred by the Prime Minister from the Shin-Bet to the Cyber Authority "by his own permission"...

Reports, published in international e-government conferences subject to international peer-review, document fraud in IT systems of the courts and other government branches, which should be deemed "unannounced regime change".
