Secure Method of Communication

Introduction...

In today's business world, your business competitors

will often try and get an edge over you by any means

possible.This includes attempts at intercepting your

sensitive business communications.

This is why it is highly recommended all companies, including yours, buy secure communication equipment for

sensitive business communications.

The problem...

But what happens when you're out ofrepparttar office,

you don't have your secure equipment with you ,

and yet you still urgently need to communicate

sensitive information with a colleague...?

The solution...

The solution is having an alternative method of communicating

securely by encoding your messages.

This system is calledrepparttar 103389 one-time pad and is absolutely impossible to crack.

Evenrepparttar 103390 biggest supercomputer of any one spy agency would not be able

to accomplish this feat.

The only things required are a pen and a paper.

Once encoded, you may send your messages by mail, email, or even by phone.

Let's get started.


The one-time pad method

Step 1:  Createrepparttar 103391 key...

The critical component of this system isrepparttar 103392 random key.

A key is a series of numbers that is used to take your original message

(the plaintext) and turn it into a coded message (the ciphertext).

Before creating a random key, you need a way to convert alphabet characters into numbers.

Make a conversion table by taking a sheet of paper and writing letters and numbers as follow:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

You are now ready to create a key.

First, write down a series of random alphabet characters, such as

RTISEWVZQYHKOPBU.

Break this long string of letters into blocks of two characters each, as follow: RT IS EW VZ QY HK OP BU

Usingrepparttar 103393 conversion table we've created above, convertrepparttar 103394 characters into numbers.

For example R=18 and T=20, sorepparttar 103395 first block HL becomes 1820.

The result is 1820 0919 0523 2226 1725 0811 1516 0221

You have now created your first key.

(Make sure to create a key much longer than this so that you can

send several messages beforerepparttar 103396 key is used up.)

As you will userepparttar 103397 block of numbers to encode your messages, you will cross out each block you have used as to not use it more than once.

(To simulaterepparttar 103398 crossing out of a block i will grayrepparttar 103399 blocks as follow:

1820 0919 0523 2226 1725 0811 1516 0221 )

Create two copies of your key.

One for you andrepparttar 103400 other forrepparttar 103401 recipient of your messages.

Step 2:  Format your message...

Let's use an example.

Ifrepparttar 103402 message you want to encrypt is ACCEPT IT, you format this text message

into blocks of two characters each, yielding AC CE PT IT.

Next, convertrepparttar 103403 letters into numbers by usingrepparttar 103404 conversion table above.

In this example, A=01, C=03, sorepparttar 103405 first block would be 0103.

The entire string becomes 0103 0305 1620 0920.

Rules...
     Rule 1- Numbers.

Spell out numbers in full in your plaintext.
For example, 123 becomes ONE TWO THREE
     Rule 2-The Period.  Use an X for each period in your plaintext.
For example, GOT YOUR MESSAGEX APPROVE TRANSACTIONX.
     Rule 3-End of message. Add XX atrepparttar 103406 end of your plaintext message
for termination. Spies would add several bogus characters afterrepparttar 103407 XX
to make it even more difficult for code breakers(those who tries to decode secret messages)
by making them try to decode those meaningless characters afterrepparttar 103408 XX.

Step 3:  Encode your message... We need a way to tellrepparttar 103409 recipient whererepparttar 103410 key begins,
otherwise he won't be able to decoderepparttar 103411 message.

Remember in our earlier example, we created a key and stroked off (in gray)repparttar 103412 blocks
we'd already used.Here's what our key looked like.
1820 0919 0523 2226 1725 0811 1516 0221

The starting position inrepparttar 103413 key is at block 0919.
So we will placerepparttar 103414 string 0919 atrepparttar 103415 beginning of our message
sorepparttar 103416 recipient will know how to decode.

The plaintext message of 0103 0305 1620 0920 becomes 0919 0103 0305 1620 0920
because we placerepparttar 103417 pointer 0919 atrepparttar 103418 beginning ofrepparttar 103419 string.
We are now ready to encode our message.

First we write outrepparttar 103420 plaintext.
Directly below it we write outrepparttar 103421 key.
Then we addrepparttar 103422 key torepparttar 103423 plaintext using Fibonicci addition.
This means we do no carrying. For example, 9 + 2 would yield 1 not 11.
And 7 plus 6 would yield 3 not 13.
Here's howrepparttar 103424 agent's working sheet would look.
Plaintext 0919 0103 0305 1620 0920
Key -- 0523 2226 1725 0811
Ciphertext 0919 0626 2521 2345 0731

     The encoded message is ready to be sent to repparttar 103425 intended recipient.
You now have a message that can absolutely not be cracked by anyone butrepparttar 103426 intended recipient.

A Balanced Life

Written by Dr. Dorene Lehavi


Today, people as busy and stressed as professionals often do not takerepparttar time to check in with themselves periodically about where they are in their lives. They tend not to stop and ask what is giving meaning and value to their lives. Sometimesrepparttar 103388 idea of doing so is frightening because of what they think they might find. In my coaching practice, I do meet many professionals who want to make some adjustments aboutrepparttar 103389 way they are living. Most ofrepparttar 103390 timerepparttar 103391 fear is unwarranted because evenrepparttar 103392 smallest adjustment is all that is needed to make a world of difference. It’s not a matter of giving uprepparttar 103393 life you know. Unless it is a health issue, even when large adjustments are indicated, it is not necessary to make major life changes overnight. Everything can be done gradually, step by step. Life is a journey and there is something to glean at every stage. In fact, most people live much longer than previous generations and therefore have opportunities to develop and express many aspects of their personalities, talents and interests.
