Cryptography is the race between advanced algorithms one create codes and the other break codes.



The image above is "the lattice cryptography relies on mathematical lattices — arrangements of dots in space". (Quantamagazine.com/ Cryptography’s Future Will Be Quantum-Safe. Here’s How It Will Work). The image could also introduce the model of cryptography where the system breaks information into pieces. And then it sends that data to the receiver by using different routes. 

The fact is this. Quantum cryptography seems invincible technology that turns cryptology into history. But then another fact is that also all other encryption methods seemed invincible when they were introduced to users. And sooner or later, there is found some kind of vulnerability. 

When cryptographical systems develop, developers use technology that is best in business at that time. And that thing causes mistakes. 

And that is a problem with the encryption process. Faster and more advanced computers can break the code. And there is a possibility that advanced systems can break even quantum cryptography. 

The idea is that if a qubit travels across two laser rays or quantum channels. The first laser steals information. And the second one will make the replacing qubit. So the system just reads information from the qubit. And then it will make the new qubit. 

The power of quantum cryptography is that the information is stored in a solid piece. That piece is the electron or photon. And that makes it almost impossible to read information from that qubit. The system detects if the qubit is lost or its energy level is changed. But there is the possibility that the attacking system can make a copy of the qubit.  

Systems are safe if they are done as they should.  If the qubits are not protected that can cause a situation where some kind of laser system can steal information and copy the qubit. So in that case the system cannot detect the missing qubit. But that is only theory. And the theory is a path to a practical solution. 

Even if algorithms cannot break codes or lasers cannot steal qubits there are always people working with systems. The attackers can use bribery, sodium pentothal, or some other method to make people give information. And that means there are always vulnerabilities.

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Who really was Plato, the great philosopher?

When we are thinking about the great philosopher Plato, we are thinking about the man who established the Academy of Athens. And we might remember that this man was a traveler. He traveled in many places in his life and wrote many texts and books, which still is very respected thoughts about the state and other things. When we are looking at the books or series of books, we are facing the thing, that there were lots of texts. If we want to use criticism we must notice that the model of the ideal state is rising the kings in the very high position, and the thing would flatter the kings. And sometimes I have thought that maybe that famous model of the ideal state is written by somebody else. The thing is that the model, where the philosophers rule the state behind the lines of soldiers could be written for the persons like Justinian, who was really flattered. The thing is that this kind of writings was meant for flatter the rulers, who would not persecute philosophers, even they had d...
