60 Years of Cryptography, 1949-2009
2009 marks 60 years since the advent of modern cryptography. It was back in October 1949 when mathematician Claude Shannon published a paper on Communication Theory of Secrecy Systems. According to his employer at the time, Bell Labs, the work transformed cryptography from an art to a science and is generally considered the foundation of modern cryptography. Since then significant developments in secure communications have continued, particularly with the advent of the Internet and Web. CIO has a pictorial representation of the past six decades of research and development in encryption technology. Highlights include the design of the first quantum cryptography protocol by Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard in 1984, and the EFF's 'Deep Crack' DES code breaker of 1998.

Marijuana on High Street
Maybe this is why they call it High Street. Police confirm the odd-looking plants they pulled last week from a flower basket in Millville's business district were indeed marijuana. The plants were discovered by a passer-by. Police responded to the scene with a ladder and confiscated the 3-foot-tall plants, which were growing in a basket hanging from a lamp post.

Das BSI warnt vor Google
n seinem Quartalsbericht (PDF) warnt nämlich das BSI (Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informations-Technik) vor Google.
"Google Wave ist derzeit nur mit einem Google-Nutzerkonto nutzbar. Alle Google-Wave-Daten liegen auf Google-Servern. Damit gilt für Google Wave dieselbe Kritik, die durch Datenschützer und das BSI an Google Mail, Google Docs, Google Calendar und anderen Online-Diensten des Unternehmens geübt wurde: Der Nutzer verliert vollständig die Kontrolle über seine Daten. Daher ist eine Nutzung von Google Wave (ebenso wie eine Nutzung der anderen Google-Dienste) sowohl aus IT-sicherheitstechnischen Gründen als auch aus Sicht des Datenschutzes aktuell nicht zu empfehlen."
