Data War
Scenario: This could happen today.
Disturbing FACT: How hackers read actual U.S. Military data.
The Electronic Frontier
Foundation (EFF) raised the level of honesty in crypto politics by revealing
that the Data Encryption Standard (DES) is insecure. The U.S. government has
long pressed industry to limit encryption to DES (and even weaker forms),
without revealing how easy it is to crack. Continued adherence to this policy
would put critical infrastructures at risk; society should choose a different
course.
To prove the insecurity of
DES, EFF built the first unclassified hardware for cracking messages encoded
with it. On Wednesday, July 17, 1998 the EFF DES Cracker, which was built for
less than $250,000, easily won RSA Laboratory's "DES Challenge II"
contest and a $10,000 cash prize. It took the machine less than 3 days to
complete the challenge, shattering the previous record of 39 days set by a
massive network of tens of thousands of computers. The research results are
fully documented in a book published this week by EFF and O'Reilly and
Associates, entitled "Cracking DES: Secrets of Encryption Research,
Wiretap Politics, and Chip Design."
Six months later, on
Tuesday, January 19, 1999, Distributed.Net, a worldwide coalition of computer
enthusiasts, worked with EFF's DES Cracker and a worldwide network of nearly
100,000 PCs on the Internet, to win RSA Data Security's DES Challenge III in a
record-breaking 22 hours and 15 minutes. The worldwide computing team
deciphered a secret message encrypted with the United States government's Data
Encryption Standard (DES) algorithm using commonly available technology. From
the floor of the RSA Data Security Conference & Expo, a major data security
and cryptography conference being held in San Jose, Calif., EFF's DES Cracker
and the Distributed.Net computers were testing 245 billion keys per second when
the key was found.
The U.S. government has
increasingly exaggerated both the strength of DES and the time and cost it
would take to crack a single DES-encrypted message. The Electronic Frontier
Foundation began its investigation into DES cracking in 1997 to determine just
how easily and cheaply a hardware-based DES Cracker (i.e., a code-breaking machine
to crack the DES code) could be constructed. EFF set out to design and build a
DES Cracker to counter the claim made by U.S. government officials that
American industry or foreign governments cannot decrypt information when
protected by DES or weaker encryption, or that it would take
multimillion-dollar networks or computers months to decrypt one message. Less
than one year later and for well under US $250,000, EFF's DES Cracker entered
and won the RSA DES Challenge II-2 competition in less than 3 days, proving
that DES is not secure and that such a machine is inexpensive to design and
build.
Today, U.S. government data
is still facing vulnerable challenges everyday.
