DARPA Study Forecasts New Encryption Ending Intelligence Surveillance
DARPA Study Forecasts New Encryption Ending Intelligence Surveillance
A study by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) forecasts U.S. intelligence’s communication surveillance capabilities are “‘Going Dark” as AI and quantum computing move toward true “end to end encryption.”
DARPA and the Center for Advanced Studies on Terrorism reported smartphones and servers with powerful processors applying “Blowfish” and other encryption algorithms and keys can now limit FBI and U.S. intelligence community access to communications. Within five years, “Honey encryption” and quantum keys will end FBI’s surveillance capabilities, and more powerful processors will end NSA access within 10 years.
The good news is that U.S. national secrets and personal privacy will be substantially enhanced; the bad news is that state actors, criminals and terrorists will soon be able to communicate without concerns the U.S. intelligence community is listening and watching.
