THE OASIS STANDARDS consortium on Thursday announced the formation of a technical committee to develop a universal global framework for supporting discovery and sharing of suspected criminal and terrorist evidence by law enforcement agencies. The OASIS LegalXML Lawful Intercept XML (LI-XML) Technical Committee will develop uniform XML schema to facilitate electronic receipt, authentication, and implementation of lawful processes. The LI-XML specification will be designed to support an end-to-end legal process where law enforcement, justice, and security agencies are principal beneficiaries, OASIS said. The specification will provide authentication and auditing to safeguard privacy, according to OASIS. Software Development
