Questo progetto, coordinato dal Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche – Istituto di teoria e tecniche dell’informazione giuridica (CNR-ITTIG), è il frutto del successo di due progetti precedenti cofinanziati dall’UE: e-CODEX ed EVIDENCE.

Il progetto EVIDENCE2e-Codex mira a facilitare e ad incoraggiare la cooperazione internazionale nel settore penale tra le autorità degli Stati membri coinvolti, migliorando le condizioni per uno scambio sicuro e rapido delle prove elettroniche nell’Unione Europea. Il progetto tenterà di cross-fertilizzare le parti interessate e l’infrastruttura esistente, rendendole pronte a implementare cambiamenti nella gestione delle prove elettroniche e nello scambio di tali prove per via elettronica.

L’obiettivo è quello di condividere con gli operatori giuridici e tecnici strumenti di lavoro per la cooperazione digitale in quei casi di EIO (European Investigation Order) che includono prove digitali, mediante:
• la creazione di uno strumento legalmente valido per lo scambio di prove digitali relative alla Mutual Legal Assistance (MLA) e alle procedure EIO attraverso e-CODEX;
• la fornitura, alle comunità giuridiche e tecniche interessate, di informazioni “pronte per l’uso” sull’EIO, le prove digitali ed e-CODEX;
• lo sviluppo di un esempio “fedele alla realtà” di come le prove elettroniche possano essere condivise attraverso e-CODEX in modo sicuro e standardizzato, per supportare i casi MLA ed EIO;
• lo sviluppo di un approccio teorico per la “gestione di file di grandi dimensioni”, se possibile seguito da una specificazione per l’implementazione pratica, poiché le prove digitali potrebbero arrivare, appunto, in “grandi dimensioni”;
• produrre un piano d’azione e linee guida per l’implementazione a livello europeo dell’esempio “fedele alla realtà”.

Il progetto è realizzato da un consorzio di 18 organizzazioni di 10 paesi.
Conoscenza e Innovazione è impegnata in modo particolare nelle attività del progetto volte a identificare e a mappare gli stakeholder da coinvolgere nelle attività e negli incontri pubblici di EVIDENCE2e-CODEX.
