The life and World !

A better computer skills and some are now in principle, anyone can retrieve the mobile phones.

Netherlands Vierhouten next town - the "middle of nowhere" - was held in late summer of Hacking at Random 2009 conference. The New York Times this infamous gathering in a decade of his predecessor, held the "Woodstock of hackers," he called. Taking place within the limits of a loose but multi-national corporate sponsors (IBM, Cisco), also featuring 170 performances between the conference is one of the "big bang" in the traditional GSM networks lehallgathatóságának demonstration was relatively simple. Two students in a notebook and a three-dimensional games using the graphics processor showed a "miracle" to the astonished audience. This means that penny is common, but their method fifikás crack of mobile phones with voice encryption to protect. It holds a GSM network to communicate inflatable pronunciation of a few minutes just used and a simple home computer you can listen to it for the purpose of telefonbeszélgetésébe. True, two terabytes of data to be analyzed (but this is a modern hard drive can fit 4-6), and with some "hacker expertise" is required.

In any event, these demonstrations have indicated that the GSM encryption is responsible for serving as the first line of defense, A5 / 1 algorithm is now named standard does not provide sufficient security for mobile phone users. Zsolt Koros, the managing director of Information Protection Noreg also confirms that the late 1980s, invented GSM network is really struggling with serious limitations. Anno has a long time to be an unblinding, the performance of today's computers, however, virtually all information passing through the GSM network (whether voice or data) with simple tools you can listen to.

Fortunately, not all countries are equally easy for hackers to do. Mobile phone service provider is to network and how the phones are configured and how the data base stored in secured line of defense. Thus, it may in underdeveloped countries do not use the latest encryption. It is therefore important that both devices have the interlocutor's most secure encryption protection, which subsequently, software updates can be downloaded to the devices. "In the absence of a target for potential users to become" - he adds Árpád Weisz, CEO of Tifon Europe, whose business and mobile and landline phones encryption technology used in British Cellcrypt exclusive domestic distributor. He also shares the Noreg leader's view that the GSM standard used simple encryption algorithm is much easier to decipher, such as an Internet-based communication channel with multi-coding algorithm to cushion each other version. Even if the necessary means less prevalent than in the internet traffic to be able to crack.

Previously, no speech, but the letters, files were in danger. The mobile devices running older versions of Windows-based software did not work reliably, unlike the Nokia-supported Symbian operating system. The solution of the Tifon mobile sms from a link in the phone itself is downloaded the software and the updated versions. "The Cellcrypt Mobile is a new generation of software running on standard mobile devices, the data packet is embedded in four types of security systems, including low bandwidth, delay of the transfer" - to explain the technical details Radnai Thomas, a security expert and owner of Tifon.

Experts have so far tried to reassure users that the mobile network is encrypted, and only in special facilities, such bodies are able to intercept. The hackers, however, dramatically demonstrated the vulnerability of networks. This "charitable" compelling tool for the vendors to respond to security gaps again and again resolved, and the latest and most secure algorithms are used.

However, George Koller, Pannon Inc. Chief Technical Officer believes that the domestic GSM network has always been properly encrypted, of course, to the necessary safety changes at certain intervals really need to carry out. Experts say four or five years there's always a popular hacker breaking team, announcing that it was close to breaking the network, but rather it is theoretically possible. He says, in Hungary there was no proof that anyone unauthorized interception of such systems with cellular conversations.
