fine and dandy...
but the whole point of encryption is the ability to encode information so that no one can read it. This is based off of a government cypher and may have a backdoor. What's more, there is no way to change the encryption level.
You don't trust Uncle Sam?
Some folks plain don't trust the government for some reason. Could there be some back door in the code? Unless the source code for this program is available, there is no way to be sure, is there? That's why open source is so damn important to security-minded folk. They can compile from the source! That's why I find it astonishing that the US Government would use applications from a criminal corporation.
Still, this is another tool in the toolbox, so thanks to Uncle Sam.
Hmmm....
If I had something I wanted to hide from the F.B.I. it would be encryted on my hard drive it would be security erased with Secure Delete (Aladdin) then I'd run Speed Disk (Symantec) to erase at its highest level then.... |
