Although quantum computing is still in its infancy, experiments have been carried out in which quantum computational operations were executed on a very small number of qubits. Research in both theoretical and practical areas continues at a frantic pace, and many national government and military funding agencies support quantum computing research to develop quantum computers for both civilian and national security purposes, such as cryptanalysis.
- Firewall monitors incoming traffic. Malicious-seeming patterns of input are identified easily and can be ignored.
Bad commands can be cleaned and reported.
- Any (highly, highly unlikely) damage is compartmentalized. Other parts of a computer can fix it.
- Computers can call on their peers or higher echelons for assistance. The PANTHEON has tremendous power when working in a concentrated effort. A MEGAMI system will typically take over (or at least locate) the offender's computer.
- In an emergency, computers could be reloaded or rebooted.
In the SARP, technology is such that high-end encryption is effectively perfect, though...Kevyn said:So it's just a matter of falsifying the right flags on your trojan. You make it look like an update coming from higher in the hierarchy. The MEGAMI executes it and then we're in Osakan's scenario.
It's because of this that most governments use firewalls of empty space. To whit, you can't hack into their systems remotely because they aren't attached to anything but an internal land-line network. You need to either be there in person to access one of their terminals or have someone attach a remote node to the physical system. But if you attach, for instance, the C&C for a missile silo to the net (to use a real world example) you'd end up with some hacker firing a missile at whatever simply because someone found the right combination of exploits, because there is no such thing as a perfect encryption.
