#WhatsApp uses cryptography to hide all the content of its messages. By doing that, it also hides cyberbullying. Because of this, the law cannot be applied due to WhatsApp privacy policies. However there is another way that we can fight the bullies...

Get rid of your standard authentication media, your smart card, your USB token, your reader and be free to move around with your inseparable companions only, your smart phone and your laptop. With them alone you can fully benefit of strong authentication mechanisms thanks to iEnigma® by charismathics®. The latest cutting edge technology delivered with a completely new user experience. Stop waiting for the IT administrator to set some weird architecture for you, do it independently yourself with some few clicks from your smart phone.

Organizations have enforced smart card authentication in recent years; however this technology is perceived as cryptic and cumbersome by many. iEnigma by charismathics simplifies strong authentication by using smart phones instead. The software is compatible with most PKI applications on computers and smart phones, maintaining the exact security standards. With iEnigma the user can log into his system, sign emails and documents, encrypt communications just as before, saving on buying other hardware and opening new ranges of use cases.

iEnigma is a mobile PKI security solution, absolutely unique and thus patented. Comparable products are either OTP or password based. Companies did not invest in architectures securing the communication between smart phone and laptop or mirroring the strong authentication and digital signature functionalities like a smart card does. With iEnigma, charismathics has translated standard APIs into Bluetooth language, reproducing the exact PKI authentication environment. Providing full TMS compatibility, enabling secure PIN entry and secure channel messaging by default, the software is immediately available for Windows Mobile. iEnigma will soon run on Android, RIM and Apple, also supporting NFC enabled units.

iEnigma simplifies strong authentication opening it to wider range of user groups. Already using smart cards, iEnigma enhances IT security by design, maintaining compatibility to investments made before. Introducing strong authentication, it extensively saves on hardware and is more flexible to use. Organizations save on constantly lost or damaged hardware.

iEnigma bridges user credentials from phones into computers, encrypting the communication channel, allowing PIN entry on the smart phone itself, thus enhancing the security compared to standard smart cards. By supporting applications on the phone, it works remotely as well. The full PKI compatibility allows for unchanged internal processes.

iEnigma re-invents the smart card and is the first strong authentication product that incorporates the expected permutation of corporate IT systems. Supporting common smart phone platforms, it supports applications both on the computer and the smart phone, putting all credentials together in a secure data container on the phone, whether it is the key chain, flash memory, SIM card or additional secure microSD cards such as the Secure Element for NFC operations. All current products are proprietary or represent a niche - no one offers an iEnigma-like 2-in-1 solution and with side benefits such as: full PKI compatibility; significant reductions in hardware cost by replacing tokens and readers using the phone instead; allowing encrypted communication; secure PIN entry; flexible credentials manageable by the user. iEnigma makes full use of the advantages of smart phones and is still fully compatible with all standard processes, APIs, cryptography algorithms and identity management systems. There is no other product opening the range of contactless authentication applications for PKI, such as in hospitals or transportation or payment schemes. The simple user interface opens up strong authentication to small organizations and the single user, reducing identity thefts and phishing attacks within day-to-day use.

This is the V.F.D. eye logo from Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, tattooed on my left ankle.

 

V.F.D. members have been known to participate in various (and often unusual) academic pursuits, cryptography, disguise training, crime prevention, espionage, animal conditioning projects, and social activism. The organization's most known tenets include both extreme secrecy and dedication to the organization itself, with membership beginning from early childhood. Its motto is "The world is quiet here."

 

Since the schism, V.F.D. has realized that it is unwise to permanently mark oneself with a symbol when the meaning of the symbol may change at any moment, so people who now join V.F.D. do not receive a tattoo anymore.

 

I'd had the outline done for nearly a year, then when I came back to Ukraine I added the eyeball. It looks awesome, and much props to Artyom in Zhytomyr, Ukraine, for doing such a fabulous freehand job.

The church "St. Martin und Maria", now used as the parish church of Sponheim, was part of an abbey, founded by Meginhard of Sponheim and his father. The abbey got consecrated in 1123, the first monks came from Mainz. After the Reformation the monks left the abbey. To reestablish monastic life here with the support of the Bursfelde Congregation failed. Another try ended in 1794, when the last monks fled the monastery from the approaching French troops.

 

The first buildings of the monastary burnt down in 1156. The rebuilding process started soon after. The layout of the church is a Greek cross, what was never planned, but the nave never got completed.

 

Wonderful mosaics cover the floor of the choir. This geometric inlay stonework, named Cosmatesque-style, was very popular in Italy (where the Cosmati-family lived). I was surprised to find it in this remote place.

 

Johannes Trithemius was abbot here between 1483 and 1505. He was not liked by the monks, as he was preferred a very harsh monastic life. Johannes was very popular among the intellectual community in Germany as an lexicographer and historian. As an early cryptographer, he was one of the greatgrandfathers of Alan Turing. In 1516, he published the "Polygraphiae", containing a "tabula recta", a cornerstone of modern cryptography.

Eden Margot St. James was born in Lyon, France in May 1925 to a French woman and a British diplomat. She was educated in London and Paris.

Always a tomboy and a firebrand, she wanted to do her bit for the war effort. Eden joined the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry in 1941 - falsifying her age in order to do so. After driving for the Auxiliary Territorial Service for several months she was approached to join the Special Operations Executive and serve in F Section with the rank of Lieutenant.

After intensive training in night and daylight navigation, escape and evasion, both Allied and German weapons, unarmed combat, demolitions, explosives, communications, cryptography, and the German language, Eden parachuted into occupied France in October, 1942.

She served as a radio operator and courier, eventually taking over as circuit organiser after the death of her commanding officer in 1943. Eden coordinated dozens of acts of sabotage as well as staging the successful rescue of 15 SOE and Resistance members. She was on the ground during Operation Jericho, helping to round up the escaping prisoners and lead attacks against German forces during the D-Day landings.

She was captured herself three times, but was able to escape each time with help from her network.

After the war, Eden was appointed MBE, and decorated with the Légion d'honneur, Croix de Guerre, Médaille de la Résistance and was the youngest ever recipient of the George Cross. Eden disappeared a short time later - it is rumoured she went to work with the SIS or the OSS ...

The immaculate "Speckled Trout" transport/testbed aircraft on show at the 1999 RIAT, RAF Fairford.

 

"Speckled Trout" is the official name of a combined SAF/CSAF support mission and concurrent test mission. It was also the official nickname given to this modified C-135C used by the Secretary and the Chief of Staff of the Air Force for executive transport requirements. Fully equipped with an array of communications equipment, data links and cryptographic sets, the aircraft served a secondary role as a testbed for proposed command and control systems and was also used to evaluate future transport aircraft design. The 412th Flight Test Squadron (412 FLTS) of the Air Force Material Command (AFMC) at Edwards AFB, California operated the C-135 Speckled Trout airframe and managed its test mission.

 

The name Speckled Trout applies to both the organization and the aircraft. The name was chosen in honor of an early program monitor, Faye Trout, who assisted in numerous phases of the project. The word "speckled" was added because Trout apparently had "a lot of freckles."

 

Speckled Trout acquired C-135C 61-2669 in 1974 and retired the aircraft on 13 Jan 2006. The current aircraft used in this role is KC-135R 63-7980. The KC-135R Speckled Trout also supports additional tests and air refueling requirements that the C-135C could not.

Famosa maquina usada para encriptar e decriptar mensagens secretas durante a guerra. Foto tirada no museu do exercito, em Paris.

Here are a few things that caught my eye from our trip to Chicago last summer for a cousins' reunion.

 

This is a German Enigma cipher machine. The machine -- and the entire captured U-boat it came from! -- are on display at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. The encryption was more advanced than anything that had ever been used, but the Poles and later the Allies (led by Alan Turing) cracked successive versions and were able to gain vital intelligence concerning German operations. Seeing the actual hardware from this famous piece of history was just fascinating.

 

I combined the photos into a mosaic to make them easier to interpret, but they are all posted at full resolution -- view large or view original.

 

Here is the German instruction text and my best stab at a translation -- help welcome! Many thanks to Jerry McCarthy for the following explanation of the context for these instructions: This is a four-rotor Enigma, a more secure development of the earlier three-rotor Enigma. A problem was that, sometimes, the newer four-rotor machines had to work in the same network as the older three-rotor machines. Setting the first (leftmost) rotor to "A" had the effect of making the four-rotor machines compatible with the three-rotor machines so that they could work together, decrypt each others' messages, and so on.

Instruction Card for the Key Machine M

Form M 4, Serial Number M: 10313

 

During the handling of this Key Machine M, it is particularly important: if the initial position is a three-figure group of letters, then the following is to be noted:

 

a) The initial position and the readout key are set in the second, third and fourth window from the left.

 

b) In setting the initial position and the readout key, as well as in keying, the letter A (red writing) must always be set in the left (first) window.

 

c) Coding must be completely repeated if during coding one determines that something other than the letter A is set in the left window.

The Colossus computers were built to help decipher Lorenz-encrypted messages. Constructed out of parts intended for then ultra-modern electronic telephone exchanges, they stored the encrypted messages on continuous loops of paper tape, which were read optically and fed into a mass of digital electronics which repeatedly performed various mathematical operations on said data.

 

The real things were destroyed, either immediately after World War II or after their usefulness in cracking Cold War messages was lost. Despite this, enough information became unclassified that a rebuild was eventually possible - using parts of now-obsolete telephone exchanges...

Normal daily life along a different timeline - which we cannot find - but have the feeling that it exists - but

 

Certainly!

 

Quantum computing represents a groundbreaking advancement in technology, deeply intertwined with the concepts of superposition, entanglement, and interference from quantum physics. Unlike classical computing, which processes information in a linear fashion using bits (0s and 1s), quantum computing utilizes quantum bits or qubits that can exist in multiple states simultaneously. This enables quantum computers to perform numerous calculations at once, effectively navigating through a vast landscape of potential solutions.

 

The idea of parallel timelines can be likened to the way quantum computers operate. Each decision or computation can be viewed as branching into multiple outcomes, similar to how different timelines might unfold based on various choices. This means that a quantum computer can explore various paths to a solution simultaneously, leading to remarkable efficiencies in solving complex problems.

 

In practical terms, this capability could revolutionize fields such as cryptography, where quantum computers may break existing encryption methods faster than classical computers. In material science, they could simulate quantum phenomena to discover new materials with desirable properties. Additionally, in optimization problems across various industries, quantum computing offers the potential to find the most efficient solutions more rapidly than traditional methods.

 

In summary, the link between quantum computing and the concept of parallel timelines highlights a fascinating intersection of technology and theoretical physics, suggesting that our understanding of reality may be more complex and interconnected than we previously imagined.

Wheel Banks represent the four rotors used on the German U-boat Enigma. Each column interconnects the four rotors, or commutators, in that column. The top commutator represented the fourth, or slowest, rotor on the Enigma, while the bottom wheel represented the rightmost, or fastest, rotor. The WAVES set the rotors according to the menu developed by the cryptanalysts. The first were set to 00, and each set after that corresponded to the plain/cipher link with the crib (the assumed plain test corresponding to the cipher text.) Usually this meant that each wheel bank stepped up one place from the one on its left. When the machine ran, each bottom rotor stepped forward, and the machine electrically checked to see if the assigned conditions were met. If not, as was usually the case, each bottom wheels moved one more place forward. However, the bottom commutator moved at 850 rpm, so it only took twenty minutes to complete a run of all 456,976 positions.

I have always found espionage a fascinating subject, although I am ignorant of its boringly hi-tech modern methods and am far too stupid to understand cryptography, encipherment and kindred matters. I suppose these ungainly-looking whirligig affairs must be for snooping on foreign radio communications. Not strictly ethical, of course, but in an imperfect world a certain prejudice in one's own favour is unavoidable.

"Defending Freedom's Future" says a large sign outside the gates of "RAF" Lakenheath ...or something to that effect. I was reading on some pacifist website the other day that Lakenheath houses the country's largest concentration of nuclear weapons. Living as I do about a quarter of a mile from the flightpath I am used to seeing American fighter aeroplanes, usually in pairs, practicing the approach. Yesterday though, as I sat in my shed smoking and reading, it was one of these AWAC things, which usually operate from nearby Mildenhall. I trust that, in submitting this post, I have not placed my life in jeopardy by disclosing "classified" information.

Rebuild of Colossus, the first electronic programmable computer, used to find the wheel settings on the German Lorenz cipher machine. Uses over 2,000 valves and achieves around 16,000 kilobits per second (I think).

 

The equivalent processor clock speed has been estimated at approximately 5.8 MHz. It runs at 5,000 characters per second. Modern PCs can run millions of characters per second.
