 Apparently this was just a teaser article.  The following is apparently
the full story:  http://cryptome.org/2013/09/nsa-smartphones.pdf  I can't
tell  for sure - it's the German original, and my German is non-existent.

 

The high level summary is that phones contain a great deal of interesting
information, that they can target IPhone and Android phone, and that after
some pretty long efforts they can hack the Blackberry too. Bottom line, get
a Windows Phone...

CORRECTION / RE: Qualified Certificate Request

2005-08-02 Thread Nap van Zuuren
CORRECTION:

You are right about the (real life) notaries function, still being necessary.

As far as I am informed, by my contributorship within CEN  ETSI -EESSI and 
CEN-NIS, there is still no solution for (very) long TERM
Storage AND RETRIEVAL of documents, key pairs, certificates, relating 
algorithms, software used etc.

Greetings, Nap

* Nap van Zuuren:

 Might be a nice (intellectual) crypto-exercise, but I am afraid that the 
 concept of the Qualified Signature will not get a widespread 
 implementation, expect for very specific areas/disciplines.

That's by design, all those notaries public don't like being replaced
by smartcards.
