Risks

DPI systems comprise standards (including protocols), technological systems and services that operate at the intersection of individuals on the one hand, and public and private entities that hold institutionalized political and economic power, on the other. Risks therefore derive from failures and inadequacies in the overarching legal, regulatory and ethical (normative) frameworks in which they operate, encompassing all organizations and stakeholders that have a role related to DPI service delivery. Risks also lie within the technological systems themselves.
