Steve, There is a boatload of GSM interception gear on the market and has been for over 10 years that performs cryptanalytical attacks on GSM's A5/1 and A5/2 ciphers. Fire up your favorite search engine and look for "passive GSM interceptor". Indeed, there are subscribers to this mailing list that sell commercial GSM interception gear that performs cryptanalytical attacks. --Lucky Green _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list [email protected] http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
