PORTELA, Irene. A intercepção legal de comunicações em redes IP. Tékhne [online]. 2008, n.9, pp.49-69. ISSN 1645-9911.

The traditional concept of “wiretapping” or “eavesdropping”within the scope of electronic surveillance is inadequate to current criminal reality. The use of the cyberspace by international terrorists’ cells have made indispensable the intersection of IP communication net. But using new technologies involves risks and have a significant impact in National Security, as well in the high costs related to its indiscrimated use. As far as International Terrorism is concerned not only the intelelligence but also the law enforcement imply a high concentration of resources in order to the fight and, especially to the prevention. In this context, the utilization as evidence of the material intercepted by the new Information Tecknologies means profound changes in the legal model of the   evidences admited on trial.
