snakey Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I was watching the late night 10 news and they had a story on a usb drive that created a "bubble" as they called it on the network making it secure and Uncrackable they say. It was made buy the csiro of Australia and is being marketed for bpay transactions. You plug this usb in and it creates a secure network on the network to send info securely from one computer to the other. Then once you unplug the usb all the info you send and received is "Gone". What are your thoughts and do you think it can be cracked? I think it can but i dont no anything more about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Kitchen Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Going on just what you've said seeing as how you didn't post any further resources my gut says it's unproven junk proprietary software thats getting media attention for its physical USB form which is easier for noobs to grok. I'd like to see a similar story on the news about SSL or SSH. Oh wait, those are software concepts that don't sparkle in studio lighting. *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonlit Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Make me think liveUSB w/VPN or something. Whatever it is, I'll bet we probably see it every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
