Gold Lock Enterprise VS Skype

Skype uses SSL which uses electronic certificates and 128 bit encryption (standard for credit card transactions online also) This level of encryption is NOT appropriate for even top secret level communications. How many times have credit card numbers been stolen online?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security

128-bit 2^128 2 multiplied by 2 128 times over. = 339,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (give or take a couple trillion…).

Gold Lock Enterprise uses 4 different encryption methods. One of which is 16,384 Bit Authentication. That is 2 multiplied by 2, 16,384 times over (not just 128 times). This method IS appropriate for top secret level communications. Enterprise uses 16,384 Bit Authentication Elliptic Curve 384 Bits (RSA 7680 Bits Equivalent) AES 256 Bits Diffie Hellman 4096 Bits

AES – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard Top Secret appropriate

RSA – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA Top Secret appropriate

Diffie Hellman – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffie-Hellman_key_exchange Top Secret appropriate

In addition to this technical “stuff” the facts remain that Skype provides a key to governments for lawful interception (which means all the security in the world in now a mute point) and  Skypes 128 bit encryption has been broken, and hackers now easily intercept their calls.

As you can see Enterprise has significantly higher encryption capabilities than Skype. Skype encrypts just enough to satisfy their customers. Gold Lock takes pride in having the best and highest encryption software on the market. Gold Lock Enterprise is a military grade encryption software. No military uses Skype to relay orders or pass top secret information.

Hotspot sniffer eavesdrops on iPhone in real-time

…

“As the private call is in progress, we can see and hear what is happening,” said Jason Ostrom, a developer of UCSniff and director of Viper Labs, the research arm of security firm Sipera Systems. “There’s real-time violation of confidentiality.”

In addition to monitoring voice conversations as they happen, UCSniff can also bug video conferences in real time. Ostrom said he and fellow Viper Labs researcher Arjun Sambamoorthy plan to show those capabilities at Toorcon as well.

With the proliferation of iPhones and other smartphones, plenty of businesses and individuals have sought to save money on roaming charges by routing calls over the internet instead of over carrier networks. Adam Boone, a vice president at Sipera, said one large, unnamed client logs more than 1 million minutes per month in such VoIP calls.

The problem, he added, is that many of the iPhone apps for VoIP calls don’t provide encryption capabilities, making the conversations ripe for eavesdropping. (Sipera plans to unveil a new product to protect such users next week).

Cops’ wiretap tech frayed

CALGARY — Alberta’s top cop says antiquated wiretap technology in the modern-day crime-fighting realm is hampering police investigations.

Western provincial solicitor generals and justice ministers recently met in Saskatoon and joined forces to pressure the feds to bolster laws to remove technological barriers which often give organized criminals an upper hand.

“The technological infrastructure is there, it is just a matter of getting the legislation in place — we believe we can be more effective,” Alberta Solicitor General Fred Lindsay told Sun Media.

“If (criminals) have a communication device and we can’t wiretap, it puts us at a disadvantage.”

Among a list of demands by the ministers is upgrading Criminal Code lawful access provisions to improve police access to information, be it on computer or cellphone — technology which post-dates the creation of current laws.

One recurrent issue is an inability for police to quickly and adequately investigate criminals by tapping into their use of cellphones.

As it is, criminals can buy prepaid, non-traceable cellphones to use in drug deals or other nefarious activities and register them under any name they want, leaving no identifiers which could help police investigations.

There is also no legislation to deal with encryption technology on cellphones.

TURKEY: IMF MEETING DRAWS LEFT AND RIGHT TOGETHER IN ISTANBUL

…

As some groups plan the final touches of their upcoming protest actions, they are taking extensive precautions to evade detection. The anarchist leader, for example, said that at any gathering, participants leave their mobile phones outside the room so that security services can’t use them to eavesdrop on conversations. In arranging to meet a EurasiaNet correspondent, the anarchist leader insisted that an interview not take place near his home or the group’s office. Instead, he chose an ironic meeting point — outside the Benetton store on Istanbul’s busy shopping thoroughfare of Istiklal Caddesi.

Building in Surveillance

…

But that’s not the most serious misuse of a telecommunications surveillance infrastructure. In Greece, between June 2004 and March 2005, someone wiretapped more than 100 cell phones belonging to members of the Greek government — the prime minister and the ministers of defense, foreign affairs and justice.

Ericsson built this wiretapping capability into Vodafone’s products, and enabled it only for governments that requested it. Greece wasn’t one of those governments, but someone still unknown — a rival political party? organized crime? — figured out how to surreptitiously turn the feature on.

Secure Devices for Everyone

Lee Gomes, 02.12.09, 05:00 PM EST 
Forbes Magazine dated March 02, 2009

Once a message is properly scrambled, our sun would burn out before you could unscramble it.

Some perquisites of the American presidency–Air Force One, say–are available only to the occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Many others, though, can be had by anyone, including a mobile phone that’s immune to snooping and spying.

President Obama is, like many of us, an e-mail addict, and press coverage of his new BlackBerry has tended to describe it as some sort of top-secret, supersecure device. In fact, owing to advances in both mathematics and computers, presidential-level security is now available on every desktop computer and can easily be added, for a price, to any mobile device as well.

Phone security is much better

 

Q: Is there any difference in security between using a corded phone and a cell phone?
— Bruno RoccaAkron

A: Assuming your cell phone is digital, there’s not enough difference to worry about, said David Wagner, an associate professor of computer science at the University of California, Berkeley, who has done research on the issue.

Back when cell phones were analog, eavesdropping was easy, Wagner said. But today most cell phones are digital. While eavesdropping with a digital cell phone is possible, ”it’s pretty much out of the reach of casual interception,” he said.

Wagner noted that wired phones aren’t perfectly secure, either. But he said both digital cell phones and wired phones are sufficiently secure for most people to conduct everyday business.

Indeed, the weak link with cell-phone security is often human users who have sensitive conversations in public places without a second thought, he said. Be careful not to share sensitive information where you can be overheard.
