The TSEC/KL-7 was an off-line non-reciprocal rotor encryption machine. The KL-7 had rotors to encrypt the text, most of which moved in a complex pattern, controlled by notched rings. The non-moving rotor was in fourth from the left of the stack. The KL-7 with 12 rotors also encrypted the message indicator and was code named ADONIS.

I needed a stock photo of an iPhone with a lock for a story on encryption. Couldn't find any decent ones, so I made one instead.

Here you can see the fancy case opened and the big 0.9mm "stylus". As you can see, I've turned on the special "ChickenScratch(tm)" encryption to keep prying eyes from reading my action items.

It's a message.

I've received a pack with ten polaroids films from the U.S.A. I'm having fun with them tonight, instead of preparing the luggage (tomorrow I'm gonna get back home for awhile).

This is a version of HopeRF's new RFM69 range that is pin compatible with the old RFM12B. Benefits include increased transmit power, reduced sleep power consumption, built in packet handling and encryption.

Motorola 3500 SECTEL Model 5DGT3506XA STU-III (Secure Telephone Unit) phone for secure voice/data/video transmission.

Operates in clear (analog) or secure mode over standard "home" telco lines. Requires power supply (left). New price was around $3,500.00... hence, SECTEL 3500? For encrypted mode two sets are required. Will go secure without the key... press the secure button and handshaking starts. Very simple to deploy and use.

Still used for government communications, very effective for protecting sensitive conversations.

Enigma encryption machine from the Second World War. This was on display at the Deutsches Museum in Munich.

The Allies ultimately were able to crack coded messages encrypted by this type of machine.

These machine were for sale - $40,000 cash each OBO - by some ham.

They look brand new. Most enigma machines were ordered destroyed by grenade by the allied forces after victory.

The 4our digit passkey is the one with which most may be familiar. Yet some iPhone owners may not be aware that there is another, more secure method of protecting their investment in that wonderfully powerful tool.

A more complex (and therefore secure) combination - one of the user's own choosing - is able to be used. Not only is the creation of that passkey cAsE sEnSiTiVe, but numbers (0-9) and characters (such as # , $ ) @ + } ~ ? <, etc.) are able to be employed in the creation of the passkey.

There are several benefits to using such a system, not the least of which means that millions more choices for creating a passkey become available. By using 4our digits, there are automatically 10000 choices available, so a "brute force" attack could be readily and successfully executed by anyone with a few minutes of time.

Yet for many, the creation of secure passkeys remains not merely a source of frustration, but of mystery, as well. How does one create secure passkeys? In many secure environments such as government work, healthcare, or certain industrial environments, passkeys are generated for the computer user - which remains a source of frustration, because those passkeys are often nonsensical randomized combinations of upper and lower case letters, numbers and characters - making them all the more difficult to memorize.

Here are a few examples:

#1.) s[+&,?a`Z6Sx/v=u#+3g06-8VEG5f;+R;tQTM%UR<jCEQ{Ks<,~;S=e=7-

#2.) 8414CF5CDB1F5F0F74B2D0EA9480D5E053A0B151FD74FFD6B27767A143C40F4F

#3.) cTcIy3EGqHlQuiBiu5GNdqmRrId0H7S1TnZPM3LyA1v85K8TxQSJ6HDiT9CvZqa

However, when the opportunity for a human-generated passkey is given, many make very poor choices and sometimes use one word - which is readily broken by a brute force dictionary attack. Some authorities suggest that words, phrases and sequential numbers should not be used. But again, unless one is in an ultra-high security field which necessitates using RSA 1024 bit security, or higher, most passkeys can be created with a very significant degree of security.

Inventing passkeys can be as simple - or as complex - as reading this entry.

For example, using one's name (ex., John James Audubon) and a calendar date (ex., January 27, 1851) the following key could be generated: 1Jn27Js51An

{The first and last letters of the first, middle & last names with the numerical date preceding each letter.}

An variation upon that theme using characters could be: (1Jn27Js)-51An

{The same routine, only with open & close parentheses.}

Another variation upon that same theme could be: Jn.1Js/27-51An

{The same routine, only with period, dash and slash.}

Other suitable options - but which experts may consider perhaps less secure, ultimately - could use phrases or sentences, such as: MyNameIsJohnJamesAudubon,&IDied1271851.

Another variation upon that theme could be: MyNameIsJohnJamesAudubon&I(d.1-27-1851)

Notice in both cases, UPPER & lower case letters were used, as were numbers and characters - the period, the ampersand, and open & close parentheses.

Here are two resources which can test the security, or strength of passwords:

Microsoft's Password Checker

(Just so the reader will know, the passkey "MyNameIsJohnJamesAudubon&I(d.1-27-1851)" as illustrated above, checked BEST in strength on the Microsoft Password Checker.)

-AND-

Password Meter Password Strength Checker

(The same key as mentioned above, scored 100%, and rated "Very Strong" in Complexity on the Password Meter site.)

Remember, humans invented computers, and as such, are smarter than computers. The only problem with that is, that sometimes, we don't want to remind ourselves of that fact.
