Quantum encryption and the weakness of European science

This week in Vienna, researchers demonstrated a working quantum key distribution (QKD) network, a feat that produced some good news and some bad news. The good news is that Siemens is probably going to be selling this stuff in a year or so; IT professionals, get ready to open your check books.

The Real Story On WPA's Flaw

Glenn Fleishman writes "The reports earlier today on WPA's TKIP key type being cracked were incorrect. I spoke at length with Erik Tews, the joint author of the paper that discloses a checksum weakness in TKIP that allows individual short packets to be decrypted without revealing the TKIP key. I wrote this up for Ars Technica with quite a bit of background on WEP and WPA. Tews's paper, co-written with Martin Beck, whom he credits as discovering and implementing a working crack (in aircrack-ng as a module), describes a way to use a backwards-compatible part of TKIP to exploit a weakness that remains from WEP. ARP packets and similarly short packets can be decoded. Longer packets are likely still safe, and TKIP hasn't been cracked. Don't believe the hype, but the exploit is still notable.
