Copyright law and intellectual property rights exist on paper. There are no new laws accepted and those from former Yugoslavia are inherited. It is very difficult to supervise the active situation. International pressure from the United Nations, OHR, OSCE and other bodies ensures that this process is ongoing. There are no specific acts for privacy and data protection, except some well-known articles in common acts, again inherited from the former Yugoslavia.
Electronic commerce is non-existent.
Encryption is not forbidden, but no legal acts deal with crypto-security. There is no IS activity in the terms we are speaking of. In the last years there were separate individual attempts to collaborate on some European projects regarding IS but without continuous process, mostly due to the war and after-war situation. Unfortunately Bosnia and Herzegovina never adopted an official approach. The people who expressed readiness and interest and contacted the panel were not always the same.
