Qld Police to get password powers

[nugget]

I have government encryption software on my pc, which uses 256 bit encryption and is impossible to crack, even if they sieze the pc, all my sensitive stuff is protected and they'll never access it, thus no evidence for the pigs...

 

 

LMAO

 

who do you think creates this software that promises you such good encryption??

 

also, I guarantee you if you think you have good security on your PC, if the goverment siezed it they would have 10x more powerful software to undo whatever false sense of security you might have had. Bottom line - If they want the info on your PC, they will get it unless you melt the whole HDD down to nothing

shows how much you know about encryption, i said it's 256 bit, and will take many years to crack, so if the user forgets the password for his data he is pretty much fucked, even the experts can't help him

Apologies, I just re-read that message and it sounded a little harsh, wasnt meant that way

 

 

Well, I guess you must be safe then

 

I guess it all depends on what type of encryption you use.

I think you need to read up on computer encryption, these days it is very much possible to get software that will encrypt data to a level that is virtually un-crackable. Yes any type of encryption can be “broken” but the problem is the time that’s required for “breaking” the code. You would be long dead before they even came close to being able to break it (even when you calculate the ever-increasing power of computers).
