I wish there were more details. Namely how they generate their 10^30 byte "virtual keystream". In order to be a true one-time pad the keystream needs to be completely random, this looks more like a psuedo-random stream cypher to me. But it should be fast and still might be secure. As a competing one-time pad vendor I don't want to be a pot calling the kettle black, but If I've learned anything from the cypherpunks, it's prove it. Which is what we've tried to do.

No pad distribution problem, but it has a key-recovery system, AND the pad is truly random?
for details.
This must be a typo: that URL doesn't contain any details.

Which brings up one more point: the web page mentions the estimated time it takes to "defeat" an encrypted message, via brute force. If it really was a one-time pad, it wouldn't be possible to "defeat" it by brute-force. -Caj
Great... more snake oil.... :( Geoffrey C. Grabow wrote:
