The last thought of the NSA, probably breaks any record of intimidation and should be passed on to the Guinness Book. The Washington Post reports that the US Secret Service is seeking to create a "master key" of encryption for all products that will be shared and given to various organizations and services.
The idea was mentioned in a speech Michael Rogers, director of the NSA, at Princeton University.
"We do not want a backdoor," Rogers reportedly said, "I want a regular front door. And I want the front door to have multiple locks. Large secure locks. ” His idea is that the key to the front door will be held by several services, and only if they all decide to use it together will it be possible to decrypt it.
But Rogers did not mention any of the conditions under which the services would agree to unlock encrypted data. Not ifeffectshey also, what if someone regenerates a key that should obviously be hard-coded into a phone's firmware for example. He did not say what the conditions would be under which keys to the “services” would be given, nor what those “services” would be.
According to the Washington Post, this idea is not the only one that the White House geniuses think. The newspaper also reports that NSA it merely examines a reflection of them messages που αποστέλλονται από cell phones, under judicial supervision (sic).
The judge can “direct a business creating a mirror account so law enforcement can conduct a criminal investigation by reading text messages shortly after they are sent” (sic again)
