Will the security breach on the >popular sports sites affect emerging e-commerce efforts? Is this the same story as the one in The Wall Street Journal today about Phiber Optic's "accidentally" sending worldwide a security test that automatically returns passwords stored on supposedly secure systems? Phiber claims he did not know the test would generate a flood of passwords to his e-mail address: from corps, mils, and govs. Says he's so sorry, especially because he's still doing community service. Phiber's employer refused to name the computer corp that installed the secure system Phiber was testing. However, experts interviewed said the password snarf feature is, ahem, well-known to experts, and that the only security worth trusting is the one you build and run yourself and test frequently and still makes you lay awake at night shivering in doubt fear and uncertainty -- like guilty-parental senators, TLA directors, and all the world's bearers of the public trust and such fundy druggies.

I hope that his code was not stolen, if it was actually stolen and then released and we knew that for sure, then trade secret rights would probably still apply. However the code was posted anonymously we do NOT know for certain that it was MISAPPROPRIATED. As such it may have been reverse engineered in manner that does not violate trade secrets and hence it can be used. The burden is with RSA to prove that any one person KNEW it was misappropriated.

RSA lcensing costs?
by thad＠hammerhead.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Adam, I called RSA last week to get information on licensing Diffie-Hellmann for an videoconferencing application. They said that "They provide the BSAFE development toolkit, but don't license the technology" and gave me the number of PKP to license the technology itself. I called a Mr. Fougmer at PKP, (408 735-5893), his message says that he'll be out of town until the 18th of September, and if you want to leave a message, call back after that date. Now, I could be completely confused, it wouldn't be the first (or even the 100th) time. If you can get a standard license by using the BSAFE toolkit, and they had a standard price for that, well, I didn't give Linda De Los Reyes at RSA (415 595-8782) a chance to tell me that. thad -- Thaddeus Beier email: thad(a)hammerhead.com Technology Development vox: 408) 286-3376 Hammerhead Productions fax: 408) 292-8624

PGP in UK and GAK

Responding to msg by anonymous-remailer(a)shell.portal.com () on Sun, 10 Sep 2:8 AM [Snip] >The person who told me about this also said something >about a Department of Trade & Industry paper which >mentioned that the British Government was going to >insist on key escrow for encryption. > >Anyone else in the UK heard anything about this? Picking up the possible mandated use of key escrow in the UK: There was chat at the NIST key escrow meeting that low-bit key escrow may be the global policy in the works among governments. With a blanket outlawing of all non-escrowed systems. And, that US key escrow and 64-bit export policy is a harbinger of domestic regulation. A fed at the B-2 breakout session imperiously barked the mantra chanted by several feds at the general meeting, "64- bit encryption is what industry asked for, why are you now complaining." To the counter-question, "what industry are you referring to?" the answer was always just "industry." The USG's latest key escrow policy, the NIST meetings and the Intellectual Cryptography Insitute's conference "Global Challenges" posted here may be the surfacing of a well- orchestrated government and "industry" collusion on this issue. Note the common ever-present attendees of both NIST and the ICI meetings. Certainly, some "industry" spokespersons like "Daughter of Clipper" Denning presume by their tone of writing that key escrow is on its way to supremacy, with only quibbling left on the criteria for acceptably "competitive" variations. The NIST handouts of industry players seem to bear this out as well, even as some join the public kibitzing. Perhaps their raz, and that of BSA, is just a diverting smokescreen to induce complacency -- or squeaking wheels to get USG attention for sweetheart contracts. Maybe they've already met privately with USG reps to get rewarded with a piece of the PGP/non-escrow clamp-down biz -- more venerable suckling of national security kabooty as advised by smart-varmints like ex-NSA Mr. Stewart Abercrombie Baker, Every-meet-attending-Esq. I wonder if Mrs. Denning and Mr. Baker are advising their sweating crypto clients, "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em, the international escrow train is leaving the station, better get on before it's too late." While fretting of derailment by hackers, or worse, by international security agencies paranoid of gov-biz complicity to take over the "if you knew what I knew" crypto-protected cornucopia. Wonder who's really engineering this GAK Limited runaway? Does anybody know David Kahn well enough to ask what he's finding as NSA Visiting Historian -- in the archives and in the job-insecure-spook resumes heat-seeking crypto fires?
