Maybe you should explain it to them?
Trying to remove information from the Internet tends to have opposite effect.
Remember when someone tried to remove the HD-DVD encryption key from
the internet[1], how may websites, emails, T-shirts etc. is that
number on now?
Remember recently a US court tried to take down wikileaks, any idea
how may mirrors now hold those files?
Oddly publicity of this information *increased* when people tried to
have it removed.
Would it not be better to invest in proper security?
(A bit of free advise was provided earlier, however from what I have
just read it appears you are making the same mistakes again, if your
engineers are literate, go buy a book on security and look up the term
"Replay Attack" )
