charismathics exhibits at Infosecurity Europe, London, UK - 19-21 April 2011

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.

Flashback to college years when this book was the rage among my friends...I finally got a copy, and it is pretty fun. I don't know what the standard is these days, but this book is pretty old at this point. All my books are, but with more clarity in my mind, I'm able to read math again.
@dailyshoot #ds211 "Make a photo of a flag today: national, state, or otherwise. Try to compose it in a unique way." Plus other Daily Shoot images for Assignment #ds211
This is a cropped version based on the most complicated iteration.
This might be a better alternative, at least the flags are more active.
Some may contend that this is not a photo at all, but it is not a pure screencap, and it was processed starting with a digital photo of the screen, shot with the Canon EOS 5D -- the metadata was preserved, even after added brushwork was applied to several layers of the processed image.
In a way, if there are questions or challenges to the "photo-ness" of this image, that will only serve to bolster my own discomfort with the narrowness of definitions and some of what is most challenging now about defining artwork by specific genres. The borders are porous, and alien (concepts) are sneaking across those borders each day. Is the flag a symbol, a work of art, a shield, a weapon, or all of the above?
Flags to me represent so many things about social conventions, coercion, struggle and contradiction. They are an artifact, and at the moment also, one of the things that disturbs me about many online communities. Or maybe this was just my reaction to seeing the preview of AMC's new Rubicon series?

Alice has named her clarinet Bob. It only just occurred to me that those are the placeholder names used when people are discussing cryptography. Anyhow this shot reminded me of Kill Bill. Hopefully Bob will fare better than Bill.
This room was the office of Alan Turing, the mathematician who was responsible for many of the key breakthroughs in deciphering the Enigma code.

Despite getting precious little sleep these past couple of nights, I feel a little more energized today. Maybe that's because all I've got left to do for my cryptography class is finish the take-home exam, a daunting task, nevertheless. This morning, as I was clearing off all the papers and books I used for my paper, I noticed these origami figures hiding in a corner. One of my students had folded them for me for Valentine's Day. And how they brought a smile to my face. Happy Love Thursday!

Edwards AFB 04/03/14
Boeing C-135C "Stratolifter" ("Specked Trout") (18345) (USAF 61-2269)(412th Flight Test Squadron Edwards AFB, 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 the squadron and the C-135C, 61-2669 that was 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 The name Speckled Trout 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."
The Gore anti-tamper wrap, used to detect physical intrusion into the IBM 4758's secure envelope. Note how the wrap is done around the inner can; looks almost like a Christmas present. The wrap is 4-layered, contains laser-drilled vias to join the layers, and is continuous, and nominally powered. When there is a break in the mesh, the device would immediately enter the "tampered" state, thus destroying the cryptographic material in the process.
