NSA encryption systems

coderman: "recent systems are just black boxes, often literally. In fact they are called blackers in NSA parlance because they convert classified signals (red) into unclassified signals (black)."
coderman: "Controls can be limited to selecting between key fill, normal operation and diagnostic modes and an all important zeroize button that erases classified information including keys and perhaps the encryption algorithms."
coderman: sounds like a pretty good usability factor there...
coderman: regarding trunk encryption: "Another example is the KG-189, which support SONET optical standards up to 2.5 Gbit/s" - 2.5Gbps of AES-256? i hope they didn't pay more than $100 for that core! :P

Just watch it! :)
