He told me that they intend to fire up a the RC5-72 challenge, hoping to get lucky and find the key near the beginning. I think they're open to other suggestions, however. Factoring may or may not be reasonable. While RC5, DES, etc require minimal memory and storage, and can so run unobtrusively in the spare cycles of almost any machine, factoring, - even the seiving step - has large memory and storage requirements. The matrix reduction step at the end does not have any efficient distributed implementation I'm aware of. I think the lower RSA factoring challenges *may* be possible - RSA-576 is still standing, with a $10k prize. Other factoring challenges have up to $200k prizes. Challenges need to be carefully set up. It must be legal - hacking a deployed system in the face of the objections of the owner won't fly. It must be credible, in that there must be no reason to suspect collaboration between the challenger and the attacker. It must be realistic - it should model a real-world use closely enough to show that changes need to be made (the RSA secret key challenges where designed with IPSEC headers in mind - the single DES option was deprecated as soon as we showed that to be weak). This is an exciting time. With RC5-64 fallen, there are a lot of options for what to do next. The most interesting thing may not involve cryptanalysis.

http://www.TheRegUS.com/content/6/26426.html Host pulls satire site after police 'incitement' claim By Tim Richardson Posted: 09/25/2002 at 05:51 EST A satirical Web site that attempted to parody concerns over child safety has been shut down following the intervention of police. Thinkofthechildren.co.uk was pulled on Monday after officers from the Metropolitan Police Service's Obscene Publications and Internet Unit contacted the site's hosts alleging that that it could incite others to violence. Police said they approached Host Europe after they received a number of complaints about the site from concerned members of the public. Host Europe shut down the site after they failed to contact the site's owner. However, the incident has sparked a strongly worded response from those running the site. A message reads: "Sorry, Thinkofthechildren.co.uk has been torched by an angry mob." "There was no warrant issued. No form of official order at all. Just a polite request - which was immediately complied with," it says. For those of who didn't see the site before it was pulled, the first paragraph read: "We are concerned parents, many of whom have children of our own and who want the law changed to protect them. Every day in Britain happy, popular children who do well at school are being murdered by evil paedophile scum. Well enough's enough! Its time the law got tough on child murderers." However, the site's owners claim this was all part of the satire and explain that it should be interpreted as follows: "This is a work of satire. It might not be very funny satire, but it is satire. It is in no way an incitement to commit mob violence. It is quite obvious to anyone who reads any of the words on the site that it is a piece of comment on Britain's tabloid-fuelled, pig-ignorant mob culture." Those behind the site say they are seeking legal advice before deciding what to do next. They conclude: "I'll leave you to ponder the irony of a site parodying mob culture being removed on the basis of complaints from a tiny group of very stupid - but very loud - members of the public." No one from Thinkofthechildren.co.uk was available for comment at the time of writing. .

Satirewire: HACKERS BEG BORING PEOPLE TO STOP ENCRYPTING EMAI
by Bill Stewart 27 Sep '02

27 Sep '02

http://www.satirewire.com/news/aug02/encryption.shtml HACKERS BEG BORING PEOPLE TO STOP ENCRYPTING EMAIL Security Experts Concur Most of You Have Nothing Worth Encrypting Anyway San Jose, Calif. (SatireWire.com) In an unusual worldwide appeal, the International Brotherhood of Computer Hackers today asked particularly boring people to please stop encrypting their emails. Please think of others when you encrypt [pictures of messages] Cracking messages like this are a waste of valuable hacker time, say hackers. According to IBCH President Bjvrn Haxor, hackers spend thousands of hours intercepting and cracking open encrypted emails believing it to be "the good stuff" only to find most contain little more than "Two priests walk into a bar," or "Hi Bob, here's my new email address." "Maybe you think hacking coded messages is simple, but it's not well, except for the Microsoft Outlook ones," said Haxor. "The rest of it is a pain in the backdoor. So here's a tip: if you encrypt just because you want to keep your personal information 'secret,' but all you're encrypting is blather about your stupid promotion or a recipe for fruit salad, guess what? Your secret's already out. You're dull." ..............[more]

I WILL MAKE YOU A PROMISE. Read this email to the end, follow the instructions, and you won't have to worry about funding your retirement, having money to play, or making ends meet... EVER. I know what you are thinking. I never responded to one of these before either. Then one day I realized that I throw away $25 going to a movie for 2 hours with my wife, why not try investing this same $25 in a system that just might work. I don't know why that day I decided to take a chance, but I can't even come close to imagining if I hadn't - I guess I'd still be poor. Read on. It's true. Every word of it. It's legal, and it's ethical. Not only are you making money from your own business, you're helping other people achieve their goals and fulfill their dreams. Give it a shot, you'll see there is absolutely no way you won't get AT LEAST a modest return on your start up capital. Okay - here's the scoop on CashByNet (CBN): ================================================== Due to the popularity of this particular email business, and the business potential of the Internet, a national weekly news program recently devoted an entire show to the investigation of this program to see if it's legal, and if it really can make people money. Their findings proved that there are "absolutely NO LAWS prohibiting the participation in the program, and if people can follow a few simple instructions they are bound to make amazing returns with only $25 in startup costs." DUE TO THE RECENT INCREASE OF POPULARITY & RESPECT THIS PROGRAM HAS ATTAINED, IT IS CURRENTLY WORKING BETTER THAN EVER. THE MORE PEOPLE WHO PARTICIPATE, THE BETTER OFF YOU BECOME, AND THE MORE INCOME YOU WILL MAKE. This is what one had to say: "I was approached many times before to participate in Cash By Net, but each time I passed on it. One day I decided that instead of going out that night, I would take the money I would have spent - invest it in this business, and see if it was as lucrative as everyone claimed. Two weeks went by . . . . nothing. Three weeks . . . . $50 dollars rolled in. At this point I was just relieved to get my money back. Then it happened - One week after this, I opened my mailbox to find $580 in $5 bills waiting for me. Its been about 8 months now, and I just bought a new Mercedes . . . black :) The startup costs are so small, and the time involved is less than 5 hours per week. Give it a shot - what do you have to lose?" Pam Hedland, South Bound Brook, New Jersey. ================================================== Another said: "Programs like this have been around for a long time but I never believed in them. But this year I won a $50 bet on the Patriots to win the Super Bowl. I got this email the following morning, and I felt like gambling. I spent $25 ordering the reports, and the other $25 paying a parking ticket. I followed the instructions meticulously - I thought I would at least get my original $25 back. As soon as I got the email out, not One week went by before I quadrupled my $25. I'd take that over the Patriots any day. I got excited, and that's when it started to explode. In less than 6 weeks I was already up $9500 bucks. It's been almost 4 months, and the flow hasn't stopped. On an average day, I get anwhere from $500 - $1500 in the mail. I always say that everything happens for a reason, and I feel that this was meant to be, maybe it is for you too. Just stick to the steps, do everything it says - and all of your hopes and dreams will be real - I promise." Greg Moran, Boston, MA.

These are the products that your customers are paying for. Not only do these reports hold the secrets and instructions for your new venture, you will be redistributing them to customers when you receive payment. To assist you with marketing your business on the internet, the 5 reports will provide you with valuable marketing information on how to send bulk e-mails legally, where to find thousands of free classified ads and much more. There are 2 Primary methods you will use to get this venture going: METHOD # 1: BY SENDING BULK E-MAIL LEGALLY ================================================== Let's say that you decide to start small, just to see how it goes, and we will assume You and those involved send out only 5,000 e-mails each. Let's also assume that the mailing receive only a 0.2% (2/10 of 1%) response (the response could be much better but lets just say it is only 0.2%). Also many people will send out hundreds of thousands e-mails instead of only 5,000 each). Continuing with this example, you send out only 5,000 e-mails. With a 0.2% response, that is only 10 orders for report # 1. Those 10 people responded by sending out 5,000 e-mail each for a total of 50,000. Out of those 50,000 e-mails only 0.2% responded with orders. That's=100 people responded and ordered Report # 2. Those 100 people mail out 5,000 e-mails each for a total of 500,000 e-mails. The 0.2% response to that is 1000 orders for Report # 3. Those 1000 people send 5,000 e-mail each for a total of 5 million e-mail sent out. The 0.2% response is 10,000 orders for Report # 4. Those 10,000 people send out 5,000 e-mails each for a total of 50,000,000 (50 million) e-mails. The 0.2% response to that is 100,000 orders for Report # 5. THAT'S 100,000 ORDERS TIMES $5 EACH = $500,000.00 (half a million dollars). Your total income in this example is: 1..... $50 + 2..... $500 + 3..... $5,000 + 4..... $50,000 + 5.... $500,000 .... Grand Total=$555,550.00 REMEMBER, THIS IS ASSUMING ONLY 10 PEOPLE ORDERING OUT OF 5,000 YOU MAILED TO. Dare to think for a moment what would happen if everyone or half or even one 4th of those people mailed 100,000 e-mails each or more? THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE. VISIT CBN AT http://www.cashbynet.net/Calculator/ to plug in your own numbers and see the results. METHOD # 2: BY PLACING FREE ADS ON THE INTERNET ================================================== Advertising on the net is extremely inexpensive and there are hundreds of FREE places to advertise. Placing a lot of free ads on the Internet will easily get a larger response than just emails alone. We strongly suggest you start with Method # 1 and add METHOD #2 as you begin to become more knowledgeable about the business and study the 5 reports. Remember to always provide same day service on all orders to ensure proper return on the back end - this means quicker profits for you. $$$$$$$$$ YOUR SUCCESS GUIDELINES $$$$$$$$$$$ Follow these guidelines to guarantee your success: === If you do not receive at least 10 orders for Report #1 within 2 weeks, continue sending e-mails until you do. === After you have received 10 orders, 2 to 3 weeks after that you should receive 100 orders or more for REPORT # 2. If you did not, continue advertising or sending e-mails until you do. **ONCE YOU HAVE RECEIVED 100 OR MORE ORDERS FOR REPORT # 2, YOU CAN RELAX, because the system is already working for you, and the cash will continue to roll in ! THIS IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER: Every time your name is moved down on the list, you are placed in front of a different report. You can KEEP TRACK of your PROGRESS by watching which report people are ordering from you. IF YOU WANT TO GENERATE MORE INCOME SEND ANOTHER BATCH OF E-MAILS AND START THE WHOLE PROCESS AGAIN. There is NO LIMIT to the income you can generate from this business !!! ================================================= FOLLOWING IS A NOTE FROM THE ORIGINATOR OF CASH BY NET: Cash By Net has become a very popular business for many sole proprietors.

RC5-64 solved
by Graham Lally 26 Sep '02

26 Sep '02

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Just noticed on /. that distributed.net wound up 4 years of intense CPU cycles, by getting the key to RSA's RC5-64 challenge. Distributed.net release: http://www.distributed.net/pressroom/news-20020926.html "On 14-Jul-2002, a relatively characterless PIII-450 in Tokyo returned the winning key to the distributed.net keyservers. The key 0x63DE7DC154F4D03 produces the plaintext output: ~ The unknown message is: some things are better left unread Unfortunately, due to breakage in scripts (dbaker's fault, naturally) on the keymaster, this successful submission was not automatically detected. It sat undiscovered until 12-Aug-2002. The key was immediately submitted to RSA Labs and was verified as the winning key." .g - -- "I look at your tanks, at the snipers, at the whole army, and feel joy.

RSA's RC5-64 Secret Key Challenge has been solved.
by Trei, Peter 26 Sep '02

26 Sep '02

First, the official PR release: --------------------------------------------------- Distributed Team Collaborates to Solve Secret-Key Challenge Contest designed to keep the cryptographic community updated on new achievements and help organizations maintain highest levels of security Bedford, MA, Thursday, September 26, 2002 - RSA Laboratories, the research center of RSA Security Inc. (Nasdaq: RSAS), the most trusted name in e-security(r), today announced that a coordinated team of computer programmers and enthusiasts, known as distributed.net, has solved the RC5-64 Secret-Key Challenge. The distributed.net team solved the challenge in approximately four years, using 331,252 volunteers and their machines. Distributed.net receives a cash prize of $10,000 for solving the challenge. Established in 1997, RSA Laboratories' Secret-Key Challenge is offered to quantify the strength of symmetric encryption algorithms such as DES and the RC5(r) algorithm with various key sizes. By sponsoring an actual contest, RSA Laboratories helps the industry confirm theoretical estimates, and through this constant evaluation, vendors are motivated to continue to improve their security solutions. The distributed.net consortium utilized the idle time of computers throughout the world to search through the list of all possible 64-bit keys for RSA Security's RC5 algorithm to find the one secret key selected at random by RSA Laboratories that decrypts a given message correctly. RSA Laboratories sponsors a series of cryptographic challenges that allow individuals or groups to attempt to solve various encryption "puzzles" for cash prizes. The RC5-64 Challenge is one of a series of contests held to determine the difficulty of finding a symmetric encryption key by exhaustive search (trial-and-error). Previous contests include the DES Challenge, the RC5-40 Challenge and the RC5-56 Challenge. "We're very appreciative of all the volunteers who offered their time and computer's idle processing time to help solve this challenge," said David McNett, distributed.net co-founder and president. "We have once again shown how collective computing power can be applied to security technology with ordinary PCs. We look forward to future RSA Laboratories-sponsored challenges that will assist in helping the cryptographic community gauge the strength of an algorithm or application against exhaustive key search." "RSA Security congratulates the distributed.net team in solving the RC5-64 Secret-Key Challenge," said Burt Kaliski, chief scientist at RSA Laboratories. "We appreciate the persistence of distributed.net and the many individuals involved in completing the search for this one key. Their work helps the industry confirm how much work is involved to search exhaustively for a key - and how a huge volume of computing time can be harnessed. The various challenges we sponsor are very useful for tracking the state of cryptographic achievements and helping ensure that organizations are maintaining the highest levels of security to protect their most critical data assets." ---- About RSA Security Inc.

At the time, I was aimed at killing DES, and creating pressure to ease the export limits on key size (they had just been raised from a ludicrous 40 up to 56. I didn't think this was good enough). I feel that I entirely suceeded. So I was in at the start of the contests, and at the end of this one (I was one of the two people at RSA who independently confirmed the decryption). I expect that this will be the last one attacked for a while - the next keylength is 72 bits, and at d.net's current rate, that would take them several centuries.
