Calling something unhackable is tempting fate a bit isn’t it
A bit like saying a ship is unsinkable
Pointless, given that the UK will be the most hacked and blackmailed country on earth given new age verification checks everywhere.
Until some muppets on the green benches insist there has to be a backdoor.
Almost everything is „hacked“ due to grid negligence or social engineering. We seem to be increasing the strength of security which obviously isn’t a bad thing but I don’t think we’re addressing the root cause
If you’re going to do something new to increase security of a system, telling the world about it doesn’t seem to be best start.
The UK also has RIPA, which allows the government to issue a notice requiring anyone who develops encryption technology to insert back doors into it for the British government. We also have „D-Notices“ which allow the government to seize any technology that might have military applications from the developer and prohibit them from doing anything further with it or disclosing it.
Any cryptography as good as what was being described here would almost certainly be the subject of a D-Notice if the government wanted it for themselves or, if it’s still on the market, it will probably have been backdoored under RIPA. To be blunt about it, nobody in their right mind would develop such technology in the UK because it would likely be taken from them or buy anything claiming to be truly secure that was developed here because it’s probably been compromised by the government.
Well, our comms guys can’t load crypto correctly on most ships / aircraft I’ve been on, so it ll be interesting seeing how they deal with this.
„Unhackable“ except when some intern in tech support gets socially engineered to reset a password for someone impersonating an admin.
It’s unshakable in the sense that it’s encryption, and quantum computers are so powerful that they can encrypt and decrypt things that average Joe computer would take years to do, but probably could still hack it with another quantum computer
UK government aiming to crack the superposition of folks having a wank and not having a wank.
Seems to be a lot of posts on WEF about quantum and Industry 4.0. I don’t think they realise how primitive the quantum tech is yet, we’ll be way into Industry 5.0 by the point it has practical applications.
