12:30 Cipher alQaeda hacked | |
| British intelligence agency MI5 launched a leak in the press information about the successful compromise of a secret cipher of the terrorist organization al-Qaida. To work on this task at the headquarters in Menwith Hill (Menwith Hill) in the north of England was organized by a dedicated team of professionals burglars MI5 and the NSA. Deciphering took six months. With this code, arrested in Britain al-Qaeda leaders to exchange messages with each other, and also operates a network of agents. The code was based on replacing letters on the table, the well-known authors. As advised, as the terrorists used the table they know by heart, religious tracts, and letters used the word on at least twenty different dialects of Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, Yemen and Sudan. According to MI5, the authors of the cipher are three men: Abu Qatada (Abu Qatada, Bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe, is in jail Worcestershire), Abu Doha (Abu Doha, is responsible for recruiting new members in Europe, sitting in prison in London) and Abu Hamza (Abu Hamza, Belmarsh prison, preparing for deportation in the U.S.). As is well known since the Second World War, after breaking the enemy's cipher is important not to reveal. For this we have methodically sent to certain death of their people - just to strongly affect the statistical indicators of the enemy. The war is actually transformed into an intellectual battle, where everything is decided by radio intercepts, intelligence and cryptography, and the soldiers sacrifice so that the enemy did not change the encryption keys. In the case of counter-terrorism activities with modern intelligence services apparently also have to turn a blind eye to some attacks, but would retain full control over communications of terrorists. Assuming this logic, but now something has gone wrong, just about breaking the cipher decided to convey to the enemy. | |
