systems. As is quite well-known, the Darknet systems would relate to the decentralized network topology
and some streams would believe that could be the next phase in our technological development and
progress. To be clear, we would not recommend any such developments, but rather expect that the
human element would triumph over everyone and everything adverse!
The applications of the link encryption
Through this effort, we would discuss how it works dealing with link encryption; in practice that would
mean that we would utilize communications channels where traffic would stay invisible to anyone who
would want to see it from the outside. As the creators of the Tor project would say, it’s more like the coin
with two sides that would remain hidden behind the menu in some exclusive restaurant. There is the
certain probability that the side could be up or down, but no one has the X-ray glasses to see the accurate
result of the prognosis. Maybe those X-ray glasses could be a good starting point to arrive at some much
more far reaching cyber security solution.
Why we need to protect our wireless communications?
Let’s try to imagine that the NASA radio link to the Mars is not encrypted and some bad guys just tuned
into that frequency and as they do the satellite jamming from the Earth – they could do some rovers’
sabotage from some distant location as well. From that point of view, we believe it’s quite clear why we
need such strong wireless communications protection as well as the well-developed procedures and
policies that would offer us a chance to effectively mitigate any potential threat coming either from the
outside or inside. Above all, wireless systems are rapidly developing through this 4 th industrial revolution
and what we so urgently need in the coming times include better security as well as more reliable
communications systems.
The end points
Reliability is the key factor of further progress. If you can offer communications that would be resistant
to many external elements – that means you can trust that technology would not leave you without vitally
significant service just around the next corner. This trustworthiness means you can be confident that
the system would work with a certain degree of accuracy, and offer you a convenient user’s experience.
If we think this way, we can expect progress at any stage of our activities, whether they are personal or
business.
